2nd ATG

Hi Everyone,
I had a second ATG treatment in April. Except for shingles everything was going great. Met with Dr Paquette in August my levels were doing great HGB was 11.1 and my platlets were 141. Doctor was happy as were my husband and myself. He told me he would see me in 3 months and start to taper me off of the cyclsporine.Until today when I called him because I was not feeling good for the past few days. He told me to go have my levels checked. To my surprise and his my levels have dropped alot. My HGB 8.9 and my platlets to 49. Has anyone experienced this type of drop after having it go up after ATG treatment. He wants me to have another test next Friday (in one week) He seems to think it could be from the cold I have. Help any input might make me feel better.
