Nephrologist 's  Response
Dear Patient,

the answer is yes. The drug levels in the blood were over the therapeutic range, thus exposing you to side effects of calcineurin inhibitors (in particular hypertension and worsening of renal function). Now TAC is on range, may be still a little higher. Don't worry, take care
