Has Anyone Else Had A Second Stem Cell Transplant 2 Years (or More) After Their First One? If So, Can You Speak To That Experience.

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Charleston, SC

My blood counts are "sluggish," and my doctor believes that the stem cell boost is the best way to get them going again. I'm wondering if there are other options. I'm currently using growth factor shots and getting infusions for platelets/hemoglobin, but I'm wondering about other options to increase platelets and Erythropoietin for hemoglobin. Thanks for your responses. I'm in a bit of a panic! :(
