Hi David,
If you are interested, you may like to try some alternative herbal therapy such as chinese herbs. This is because in asia where AA is more common than the west eg China, herbs are the first frontline of treatment for aplastic anemia with the BMT second.
But before you try any herbal therapy, I strongly suggest you to read the
Research Report by Dr Greame Shaw and Dr Ba Hoang on the use of the Botanical Herbal Formula (BH-5) for aplastic anemia.
I've had good results from herbs and shark liver oil for the treatment of my son apart from having the ATG.
Reading the above research report will give you more information to help you to form some opinion as to whether you will like to try the herbal route while on the waiting mode.
Just a suggestion for you to think about.
regards
