Question about High Dose Cyclophosphamide
Hello everyone!! It has been a while since I've posted a thread. My husband Andre is still in the hospital fighting daily for his life. I really do admire his strength.
Andre has had multiple infections for a very long time and the antibiotics were not clearing them up. As a result, he has been getting daily granulocyte infusions and he had his infected thumb amputated this past Monday. He is doing a lot better now and the doctors are looking at different ways to treat his Aplastic Anemia.
Andre wasn't successful with his first treatment of ATG/Cyclosporine so now the doctors want to try High Dose Cyclophosphamide. Is there anyone on the forum whose Aplastic Anemia was treated this way??
If so;
How successful is this treatment for Aplastic Anemia and how did your body react to the treatment....side effects, etc...??
