@alxlo1 Ah, ok. I thought when you said you’re staring the process Thursday you meant you started day -6. ☺️ So you still have that to look forward to. The countdown usually begins with day (minus) -6 and when you get to day 0, that’s stem cell infusion day. Then all the days after that are Day +1, +2 and so one.

It’s perfectly normal to be apprehensive. I would think you’re super human if you weren’t. Though for me and a few of my friends who went through this, once we got back to feeling normal, we felt a bit invincible! We have super powers of a chimera. Having 2 sets of DNA. I often thought it would make great fodder for a good mystery novel.

If you need pointers, a nudge, moral support, answers, hand holding…I’m here, along with whom I lovingly refer to as my BMT posse, to help you along this unique trail to your 2nd chance at life. Keep me posted, ok?

@loribmt 144 days post transplant, flow cytometry of lung fluid shows an atypical CD4 positive population of white blood cells. According to my oncologist this indicates a recurrence of my lymphoma. What are the next steps?
