Alcof,
I am glad that he is doing so much better! To my knowledge, there is no risk with stopping cyclosporine abruptly. It isn't like prednisone, for example.
I must warn you though that it can cause intense arthritic-like pain in the joints for some people when the dosage decreases (even slightly). So, look out for this and know that it will pass within a few days/weeks.
