Hi Paul - I'm very sorry to read that you're not doing as well as previously.

I can't help with advice on 2nd allo transplants except to say that in the 5 years I've been on this forum I'm pretty sure I recall a couple of successful ones and you seem like a person of courage with a positive attitude. I understand that you need to be in complete remission before attempting a second transplant.

Can you give us any more of a picture of how you are feeling now? I understand 4% blasts is still within normal range. Have your specialists actually stated that the last transplant has failed due to non-engraftment?

Sending my thoughts and prayers for you as you decide what to do next.
