So far things are running relatively smoothly and we are back to the waiting game to see if the transplant is working and when we can get discharged altho this is looking to be at the minimum 20 after transplant providing that he has neuts of 0.5 and no pther issues.

I am hoping that your dear son will be forever cured.

Neutrophils of +500 are is not bad; only when the get under 500 (more so, 200 or less), do doctors get very concerned. My mother's hematologist says that neutrophils of +1000 are all that is needed really for decent protection. She says that the range 500-1000 is okay, though, particularly if the person takes some precautions (masks, washing hands, staying away from crowds, etc.)


I am wishing your family love, health and happiness.
