Blasts
Hi Susan,
Very interesting with your positive response to ATG!
It is common that peripheral blood and bone marrow show different blast counts. We should not have any blast cells at all in blood and less than 5% in our bone marrow.
The young immature blood cells (blast cells) should not leave the bone marrow until they have matured.
As you know it is not a positive sign that you have so much blast cells both in blood and bone marrow. It is common that the number of blast cells can be different in different parts of the bone marrow.
Hope you will find a good donor for the SCT!
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
