Hi Everyone,
I am looking for information about stem cell transplant procedures. I have an appointment next month at the U of Chicago to talk with the head of the bone marrow transplant department over there about whether or not I am a candidate for this procedure. I have a mitigating disease that might very well eliminate me as a candidate (PKD - polycystic kidney disease) - but my kidney doc gave me a referral and wants me to look into it. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much,
Kathy
