I just returned from Mayo from having a week of Consolidation Chemo my tummy is black n blue and hurts but I know this will keep the AML in remission. Now I am working on finding a place to live near the Mayo for four months. The first month will be for my husband to have a nice place to rest while I am in the hospital. This journey is pretty intense if you ask me!

Thank you so very much for all the help you can give me! Susan

Hi Susan! If you could have heard my ‘snort/giggle’ when I read your line, “This journey is pretty intense if you ask me!” You’d have laughed out loud! Yes’m this will be the ride of your life but when you get past the part of being Super Woman brandishing the enemy with your shiny wrist cuffs, you’re going to feel invincible! So hang in there!

I’m curious about being in the hosptial for a month after transplant. I wonder if Mayo Phoenix has a different protocol than Rochester? We were outpatients immediately after transplant and lived off-campus in whatever lodging we chose for our lengthy stay.
I’m not familiar with the Phoenix area but maybe @alive or other Mayo-Phoenix members would have some ideas for your stay.
Do you have any other transplant related questions I can help you with?
