Hi maryotaber. It must have been very hard to wait so long for improvement.
Patients who are told that a response can take many months may still start thinking that they'll have to repeat ATG, go to transplant, enter a trial, etc. before they've given ATG sufficient time to work. Your experience is important for them to hear, even though like many patients your ATG success wasn't permanent.
