Round 2 of ATG

Hi Everyone,

I am going in for round 2 of ATG next week and would love to hear from anyone else who has had to have two rounds. I was first diagnosed when I was 34 weeks pregnant with my son in October 2010. I had Horse ATG and was on cyclosporine. I was transfusion independent by December 2010 and was declared in remission with totally normal counts by February 2012. I was weened off cyclosporine by October 2012. This past spring my counts began to drop and I was put back on Cyclosporine in July. My hematologist hasn't been happy with my response so we are doing another round of Horse ATG. Any experiences from others you can share would be great!
