Sounds scary - although I'm sure the transplant team is used to dealing with infections - can they tell if the pneumonia is gone? Are you doing a non-myloablative transplant? If so, forget what I asked about t cell depletion - I don't think they do it if its not a fully ablative conditioning regime - and perhaps safer with the potential infection. Either way I'm sure they know what they are doing.

Interesting you are doing the chemo as an out patient - that was not offered as an option to me - my chemo starts in the hospital - everyone does it a bit differently, hopefully we are both in good hands.

Not to gloat - but I guess I'll be cured about a week before you - I'll let you know how it feels.

Good luck with it all -
