Hey Laura... I have a thread in My Story called Julie's Adventure. And all I know is that because I am 34, and had treatment for AA over 10 years ago, they are wanting to watch me closely, and be prepared for transplant in the future. I have a few chromosome abnormalities... which might be from my former treatment. Watching and waiting is what they're suggesting at the moment. And it's a lot harder to do than I thought! But I'm just rolling with it. Have a great week. 
P.S. My last platelet count was 34! So a bit of an improvement... but amazingly still leaves me feeling unerved about it all.
