Hello Jona, we are in a similar situation my husband had AML and has relapsed after his stem cell transplant he has had more chemo and a 5 week stay in hospital due to neutropenic sepsis and gvhd. He is getting a bone marrow biopsy next week and we are terrified of the results in case the Leukaemia is still here🙁. It's a vile disease and I so understand your concerns. Kind regards Tracey.
