Isolation After SCT Procedure
How long did your doctor recommend that you remain isolated from work/visitors after you went home following your SCT? Thank you
KurtKozma, There is no mandated time period. It will depend on your blood counts and your immune system. I would surely remain “isolated” tell you have had your vaccinations, childhood vaccinations, flu and COVID19. It is for your good, you are worse than a new born baby because they at least have their mothers immunities, you have nothing to help you fight off any virtual/bacterial/fungal diseases. Going out too early is dangerous. Trust in your doctor to guide you. Have a good day, Love, Marcia 🌼🌸🌻
My husband is at almost 3 months (Oct 28) from SCT and still isolating. Nov 1 he can begin with Vacine and flu shot.
This is a tough question. It's usually 100 days, but we always have low immunity and will have to be careful.
His will take two years to complete. When he had his stem cell transplant done we were given a booklet that told the process. Guess what am reading not every one has the same process.
I'm on a monoclonal antibody. My doctor says I still have to act unvaccinated. Mask and social distance. Even though I have had every Vaccine😟
I’m Scheduled To Have A Stem Cell Transplant Next Month, And Wanted To Know If The Process Was Rough Or Easy?
My Wife Is 58. Her Plasma Cells Are Below One Percent And Her Abnormal M Spike Protein Is 0.2 Can Anyone Share Their SCT Experience?
If You Get A Stem Cell Replacement, What Is The Percentage Of Multiple Myeloma Coming Back
