Transplant bound
I'm tentatively scheduled for Oct 20th Admittance, and Oct 31st Day 0...
I have to let them know if I'll participate in a study for a mucositis drug and/or a hormone reducer or neither, supposed to help immune system recover faster... I can opt out, and get the one for mucositis, but not get the possible added benefit of the other drug (which lowers hormone levels)...
Tough descision, but I'm leaning toward participating, and my Hemo and Nurse Practioner agree, since it will get me better and more closely mointored for symptoms...
God Bless and see you everone through...
