Ray,

Sorry to hear the news about your CBC. You certainly have battled your way through more than your share of transplant, gvhd and all of their complications.

I'm not sure what all of these things mean, but doing a little research, I am wondering about your liver and kidney function, also, are you taking tacrolimus or cyclosporine?

A couple of articles suggest the possibility of problems like hemolytic uremic syndrome and calcineurin toxicity for the presence of schisocytes, and this might also explain the problems with the platelets and RBC shapes (target cells).

Hopefully it is as simple as a change in drugs and that your doctor comes up with an answer soon.

Dan
