PCP treatment?

Hi Dan,

you wrote that you got PCP in Summer 2010.

This is one of the potential dangerous diseases i have to avoid in my actual immunosuppressed status after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. So i must take Ospen 1500 mg twice a day.

PCP can come when you are immunosuppressed. HIV-patients with CD4 counts <= 200 have to make a prophylaxis for PCP. Perhaps you have/had similiar values because of your Prednisone intake..?

What has happened to your PCP? Is is gone? Do you take medicaments for it?

Whats about your CD4/CD8 counts?

The status of your immunecompetency is important for the choice of your next therapy...

Nice regards,

Margarete
