For comparison...

Hi Kelly,

I'm just putting this out for comparison. My 4 month BMB showed absolutely no improvement as well. In fact, it was more discouraging. This was despite the fact that I had seen some improvements in my counts. My 7th month BMB was the first to show some signs of a recovering marrow. My doctor had told me that my counts would improve before I would see it in the marrow. It seems counterintuitive to me though!

In any case, it's still wise to start a donor search in parallel.
