Before or after?

Hey Laura!

Thanks for that info. Does the Campath or ATG come into play prior to or after transplant?

It's interesting that one substitutes for the other. As I understand it, my doc uses ATG, so she doesn't want me using ATG for immunosuppression earlier on, in effect, saving it for use during transplant.

I clearly need to do some research into how these drugs work, so I better understand why she thinks its a problem to use them now and use them later.

Thanks again!

Greg
