BMT of my 2 year Old Kid

my 2 year old kid is in hospital for BMT and today its post transplant day 19 and his WBC fell from 6000 yesterday to 4000 today.. doctors started Cyclosporine orally but he is not taking it at all.. yesterday we mixed it with yogurt and then he took it with ease.. now i m afraid that this fall in WBC might be due to mixing medicine with yogurt?? his hb also fell to 7.6.. kindly guide me

on day 19 post transplant my kid received blood transfusion as his HB was 7.6. he also got plateletes transfusion.. doctors switched again to IV for for medicine as he was not taking oral medication. yesterday was day 20 and his WBC was 8 and his Filgen injection was reduced to one per day.. previously he was getting 2 Filgen injections each day.. today on day 21 his WBC reduced to 4.8 and his HB is again 8.8.. need your prayers..

yesterday he received one filgen injection and today is day 22 and his WBC fell more to 3. he got another blood transfusion yesterday .. platelets are getting transfused everyday..

yesterday he received 2 doses of Filgen and at mid night he was also transfused with platelets.. his early morning results were good.. WBC was 8.8 and Platelets 55000.. HB was down from 10 to 9.6.. today is day +24 ..

All the best dear,

Hang in there, all will be good soon

thanks for your kind messege... he is not out of hospital for more than 2 weeks.. last week his hb was 11.2 but it fell to 9.2 two days before.. he actually got a severe diarrhea at BMT unit which still persist till date.. according to doctors its a GVHD and he is receiving Methyle Predisonole 2 mg per kg in addition to other medicines...

This is all very common after BMT. Hopefully, the GVHD will soon be under control.

today is day plus 68.. we sometimes give him uncooked banana as well as yogurt.. we will be more careful in future.. his cough is better now.. should we check CBC blood test weekly basis or after two weeks..

thanks andy for the reply.. his gvhd is a bit better now.. last week hb was 9.8..

yesterday his CBC report shows HB 8.3.. i made me worried.. hopefully will rise again

today is day plus 72... and hb yesterday was 8.3.. on day plus 59 it was 9.8.. can any one share the experience...

I think his Hb should be checked at least weekly as long as it continues to fluctuate.

thanks andy.. today is day plus 75.. his HB today was 8.3 again.. doctor advised to increase cyclosporine from 0.5 ml twice a day to 0.6 ml twice a day..

Has there been any improvement since the cyclosporine dosage was raised?

today his hb drop to 7.4 ... two weeks ago it was 8.4.. tomoro will meet doctor.. worried too much
