3rd ATG treatment

Hi everyone! In 2007 I started with this disease. After a first ATG treatment, we waited 6 months and it didnt work, so we tried another ATG. This one started to work 9 months later...we were arranging BMT. After 2 years of remission my doctor told me to leave the ciclosporine...very slowly, I was scary to leave it, and now 1 month ago when I was taking only 25mg of ciclosporine a day, I suffered a relapse. First my platelets fell down and then the rest....:-( Tomorrow I will go to the hospital for a 3rd ATG treatment...somebody here have already pass for a 3rd ATG treatment?? I am upset and discouraged. My doctor said than the better solution and the only definitive cure is a bone narrow transplant but I am terrified of it because I dont have brothers or sisters and it would be a non related donor...I am 31 years old. Please, give me a ray of hope!! Thank you
