Hi Lia,
Sorry for the late reply. Sometimes a hypocellular marrow can be the result of a bad virus, drug, or chemical exposure. Doctors will frequently watch-and-wait to see if the marrow will recover on its own, assuming the counts aren't severely low. Perhaps that is why they aren't concerned yet. Be sure to report any changes that you notice in his appearance or energy level.
