Had 3yr checkup yesterday @ Virginia Commonwealth University aka VCU (final 4 NCAA tournament...too bad they didn't win) it went great! Told they would see me on my 4th yr checkup!! Lowered my prednisone from 7.5mg to 5mg a day.Chest x-ray,EKG and bloodwork then I was on my way.I wish it was that easy for everyone that has had a transplant.I truly have been blessed and i thank God for letting me wake up to another day! My donor is doing just fine too! God Bless!! Chris
