Hypoplastic marrow

Case History

My oncologists explained Aplastic Anemia, and my treatment options.
A bone marrow transplant was one option, but even with a related donor match, at age 41, my odds of survival were quoted at around 60%.

A third option that they presented was High Dose Cyclophosphamide which was experimental
(the same chemotherapy that they use before a bone marrow transplant), without the Bone Marrow Transplant.
Immunosuppressent treatment (ATG) was another option.
