Shadowii,

Congratulations to your dad for surpassing day 100. May it be one of many milestones to come. All I can advise is that your dad asks lots of questions, takes his drugs as assigned, and trust the doctors. Blood counts can fluctuate a lot after transplant and are frequently drug and dose sensitive. The key at this point is to be sure that your dad avoids buffets and undercooked or unclean foods, wash hands a little more, etc. as is prescribed for lower white counts. I found that prednisone usually increased wbc, bur during tapering you can see unusual drops. Transplant is part art, part science, so expect adjustments.
