Hi @bscham, I know your husband was anticipating his stem cell transplant in late October. Was he able to go ahead with it? How’s he doing?

Hi @loribmt, thanks for the follow up. On Oct. 27th my husband was hospitalized with an infection. He was discharged on the 29th and after discussing the issue with Mayo they still wanted him to come on Oct. 31st. He went through 4 days of tests for his heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, etc. and passed everything with flying colors. Unfortunately, he still has the infection in his system and will be on another round of antibiotics. Therefore, the BMT has been delayed and it is now scheduled to start on Nov. 25th. He doesn’t feel too bad and doesn’t have a fever. But he is very tired.
The delay was disappointing but the Dr. has assured us that the transplant will happen!
