I had AA in 2012 and had ATG in April 2012. I did OK for a year then my blood counts started dropping. I had to have transfusion about every 2 weeks. I had another BMB in March 2013 and that's when they found I had MDS. I took Revlimid for 2 months and my blood counts went up. I felt good and was in good health so Dr said we should look into BMT. I went to IU Health in Indianapolis ,In. They found a 10/10 unrelated match and I went into hospital the day before my 60th birthday. I had SCT 1 week later and today I feel almost back to normal. As Bailie said, it is best to have transplant when she is healthy. Best of luck with your decision.
