Hey Kari!

I can't tell you much about ATG, but there are lots of folks here who have had it.

Like Lisa V, I'm curious about why the docs are recommending ATG. Immunosuppression in MDS is usually used with younger patients, those with hypocellular marrow, folks with Trisomy 8, and folks with HLA-DR15+.

Good luck to you and your Dad!

Greg
