Waiting for possible bone marrow transplant

How long does it usually take to find a donor after the HLA typing is done? I have relapsed 3-4 times in the past 5 yrs since dx with AA & received ATG from horse & rabbit along with prednisone & cyclosporine. I've been taking promacta with no results yet.... Docs say I really need the transplant I agree but the don't want to give me anymore immunsuppresive meds while I may get a transplant in the near future but how long is this gonna take I'm getting transfusions every week and my platlets are down to 4..... Does everyone get GVHD?


Sorry for sooo many questions & thanks in advance
