Are you still taking cyclosporine or a different immune suppressant following your ATG? My recollection is these type of medications also reduce the lymphocytes so the lymphocytes don't continue to destroy your red cells, white cells or platelets... Following ATG. The gradual increase of your lymphocytes may be happening if your team is weaning you off your immunosuppressant medications. Suggest you ask your Dr though at your next visit.

Great to hear your counts are doing so well following your ATG. This is great news.
