You have some big decisions coming up regarding your BMT. It’s very important that you feel a connection with the BMT doctor and team. They will be integral figures in your life through all phases of the transplant and recovery.
There will also be frequent trips to the clinic for follow-ups so convenience is also a consideration.
There’s a growing membership of BMT recipients in the forum. We are all very supportive and here to offer advice, suggestions, encouragment and of course, hope to anyone who is facing a bone marrow transplant. So when you’re ready, here are a couple of current discussions that might be helpful as you prepare.
