Moving towards SCT
Hi everyone!
Due to my recent blood counts my transplant doctor feels we should proceed with preparations for a myeloablative allegeneic transplant. I guess I should feel fortunate since this was supposed to happen in Sept. 2008, but after I left my job my counts stabilized. Three months ago my platelets began to slowly drop again and last month my neutophils fell to .9. I am scheduled to have another BMB done this Friday. After that he will start all the pre-transplant testing which will take some time. They also have to contact the five donors again and test them. We are looking at maybe three months from now. I will let you know when I have more info.
Jill
