Hi Kat! Reading through your reply just now, I’m wondering if the medication your doctor was referring to is Ursodiol. It’s used as a prophylactic drug against liver/gall bladder damage after a bone marrow transplant.
I just want to make sure I’m reading your message correctly about the Acyclovir. It looks like there was a misunderstanding about upping the dosage of that medication. Don’t increase Acyclovir to 3 pills daily without talking to your doctor/NP. I suspect he thought you were still taking Ursodiol and that he’d have you up the dosage on that medication for your liver. I hope you get some clarification before changing your dosages.
I was on Ursodiol for quite a long time, as well as a drug similar to Acyclovir. I took Valacyclovir instead because the Acyclovir affected my liver.

Some patients don’t have any discernible gvhd symptoms. Your bone marrow biopsy, peripheral smear and your chimeric tests will be important as verification of your transplant status. As long as there’s an underlying reaction taking place where your new donor cells are at work protecting you against a relapse of MDS that’s a good indication of a GVL (graft vs leukemia) reaction…which is the goal.
You’re doing so well, Miss Kat. No fretting at this point! I have faith that your biopsy will come out looking impressive. ☺️.
Stay safe from those terrible fires! It’s awful that one of your doctor’s patients lost their home because of that! I can’t even imagine…
