Yes, it is more typical for patients to have AA that can be treated and come back later in life as PNH, and some persons present w/ both AA and PNH. I have met and have been told abt other patients by hematologists and rare disease specialists. In respect to stem cell transplants, it is my understanding that the usual age cut off date in the U.S. is 70. Obviously, someone's overall health absent of their disease is important. A transplant is a huge commitment, but having a good attitude helps.
