thanks Hopeful

Hopeful,

Thanks so much for your reply. That's good to hear about the Cyclosporine. We have been worried that she might start getting too many infections. We also didn't like the idea of doing the ATG as mom and I thought this might be too strong for her to take, but that article that mentioned the 70 year old subjects only taking a 50% dosage of ATG and having good success gave us hope. Using a 50% dosage for people > 70 makes sense to both of us. We will discuss doing this with her hematologist if Cyclosporing alone isn't successful.

Thanks so much,
Dave
