Smile Good news 1 year after ATG

Hello!



My husband finished ATG treatment 1 year ago. He started decreasing cyclosporine dosis very slowly in April: from 150 mg/day to 120 mg/day.
Today we had his last follow-up consultation and his values are: Hb – 14.5; WBC – 4.0; Platelets – 190.
We are feeling in the seventh heaven with these good news and the first thing I’m doing when arriving home is coming here and share the good news.
He is doing well, more tired than before the acute disease but he has more weight (about 15 pounds more!).
Meanwhile we went to Brazil in January and he came feeling much better (now with this 1 flu pandemy we will avoid these trips)
It’s wonderful to feel how we’re feeling.
I want to tell everyone that may be going through what we went last year that it will be o.k. everything will be fine!
I’m thankful for this group and all help I received here.
I will go on coming and telling what’s going on. And hope I can help as you helped me.
Best regards and much Light to all.
