Yes, I had the same experience as CurlyGirl describes. As I began to recover post-ATG, I had several CBC's with nucleated red blood cells, and my doctor said the same thing - that while these are typically not good things to see in the blood as they indicate a blood disorder, in recovery from SAA they provide evidence that the marrow is working hard to start producing blood again - a good sign in our case.
