Thanks Meri, yes I learned very early not to make any changes! A couple weeks post transplant I used a different detergent because my old one was unavailable. Ed got gvhd in a pattern (collar, cuffs, underarms, belt...anyplace fabric would be tighter) that made it clear to me was detergent. The nurses kind of shrugged off my suggestion about the detergent but nonetheless I now always use one "clesn" detergent (no scent, no dye, no additives) and no fabric softener.
That's why I am concerned about the vaccine. Anything new and different seems to set him off!! We also try to make life as boring and predictable as possible!
Well he has surgery in a couple hours for that blood clot. Prayers please!!
