Call transplant team: What a great brother! This forum answers questions the international community, but most of the docs who volunteer to answer these questions are USA based. We don't know the types of care and protocols that are available in your location.. But please contact the transplant team and ask what the procedure is to get tested in your location. See if they have a website answering that question too.
