Dropping counts

A quick history of my daughters disease. Hayley was diagnosed with SAA in March of 2008. After receiving a round of horse ATG and cyclosporine untill March of 09 her numbers continued to rise. The past 2 months we have had a bit of a setback (at least in my mind) her counts have all dropped significantly. Her #'s were as follows.

May
Whites 12.8
Hg 13.1
Platelets 289
Neutrophils 8510


June
Whites 9.5
Hg 13.2
Platelets 211
ANC 4655

July
Whites 6.7
Hg 12.6
Platelets 203
ANC 2590

So after these numbers ... is there anyone who could give me any insight on weather or not she is headed for a relapse? Our docter was'nt concerned last month, but this is the second month in a row that her #'s have dropped and of course I am concerned. I have been following this site since her diagnosis and it has been extreemly helpful in our journey, I have never commented because Hayley has been doing so well but with this news I could use some advice. Thanks
