That does sound pretty definitive, Kim. I don't know about you, but I would be feeling pretty relieved to hear that, despite the fact that it doesn't exactly resolve all the issues.
We were in a similar position, with our hem/onc saying he couldn't imagine the transplant team
not recommending BMT. Well, guess what, they reviewed his case and did not recommend it. We were relieved, and his counts have continued to improve, even though it means he's still on cyclosporine. Sometimes there is no clear "right" answer, but erring on the side of caution seems like the better option to me.
