Hello!



As many of you may remember my husband had a AA relapse on June 2010, had 2nd ATG + CyA that is on 140 mg/day since ATG.
Until last September he had "normal" values - even for any person. His platelets that always drop first were on 159.
His doctor decreased CyA to 120 mg/day.
Since then, Platelets started to drop and today they are at 103 (in last month dropping more than 10 per week).
Last week his doctor raised CyA to 180 mg/day. But today platelets were 103.
We're upset and worried because we "already saw this film before".
But relapsing during CyA???
We were not expecting this - 18 months ago it was after stopping medication.
Now his doctor says my husband may be resisting CyA.

We live very far away where he has his main doctor.

Some input is welcome. It's always starting over again.
I wonder if this will be fixed some day.
I'm starting to believe that he will have a BMT - he is 48 years old and we don't know if there is any match donor in this world...

I wish you all the best . and Seasons Greatings - for us it will be hugged and crying that's what we have done since yesterday...
