I'm really not certain if I can lend any insights. I probably have more questions than answer at this point.I don't know the exact terminology but others have received an additional boost of stem cells from their original donor. I don't think it happens often but have they considered this as an option?
Are all three blood lines affected or just red cells?
I don't know where he is being treated but if it's not at a hospital with lots of experience with SAA and BMTs, then I would consider getting another opinion.
Others experienced with BMTs will chime in and may have more suggestions for you.
