What hospital is your husband being treated at? I'm sorry, but they are not following appropriate protocols for using ATG/cyclosporin to treat his AA.
ATG will NOT work if it isn't used properly.
I would be asking a whole lot of questions in terms of how experienced they actually are in treating AA. I would be looking to gettting a second opinion from a centre of excellence that knows how to treat AA properly.
This disease requires precise treatment, not half-hazzard guessing and experimentation.
