A transplant can be life-changing. Recovery after transplant can be slow and challenging, and can be even harder if you learn that you have an infection called cytomegalovirus, or CMV.
A weakened immune system and the need to protect yourself from infection might cause you to feel isolated right now, but it may help to know that you are not alone.
Every year in the U.S. more than 39,000 people receive an organ transplant, and more than 20,000 receive a hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
Stem cell transplant may also be known as:
*HCT will be the abbreviation used throughout the website for these types of transplants.
Finding out you have a new health problem when you're already dealing with so much can be frustrating. If you're feeling overwhelmed or uncertain right now, it may help to learn more about CMV after transplant.
Your healthcare team is always your best resource for information on your transplant and any post-transplant complications you may experience.
This website is intended to help equip you with additional information so that you can work with your transplant team to get the answers you need.
