Aplastic Anemia and Pregnancy
Hello,
My name is Anna, I was diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia at the age of 9, in 2001. I did a round of cyclosporin, chemotherapy, radiation and a bone marrow transplant. I was on and off and the doctors didn't think that my BMT was successful so they started me on the horse serum for about a year. Eventually my body ended up rejecting my brothers bone marrow and my bone marrow came back healthy as can be. I was declared to be in remission in 2008. I am now 20 years old, married and pregnant with my first child.
I was doing some research to see if it can be passed to my child and came across research that pregnancy can cause a relapse in aplastic anemia. Have any of you been through a relapse caused by pregnancy or passed it down to your children/child?
