Hello Maz,

Nottingham is a little bit off the beaten track for me, but could I send you a question all the same?

If she is not the correct person to reply and you can help me out through other sources then I would appreciate it also.

Thanks

Crapaud

Hello Crapaud, yes of course you can send a question, and I will do my best to get an answer for you, though you must understand that the answer can only be in general terms. Maz

Hi Maz, sounds good, I can't make this one either as in turkey...hope it goes well. Paul

Hi Paul, yes it does sound a good topic to be talking about, we will miss you tomorrow, hope you are enjoying your holiday. Maz

My question concerns chimerism levels after a BMT/SCT:

What are the expected attainable levels 3/6/12... months after a transplant?

With a low but stable 90s 'score' is there a risk of the 'old' trying to come back in force?

Hope my question is general enough to be beneficial to others.

Have a pleasant day tomorrow

Thanks

Crapaud

Would love to be able to come but I think the weather is going to stop me today as it is quite a long drive

Hoping that the weather improves this afternoon, it's pouring here in Derbyshire at the moment so I may be wearing my wellies to the meeting tonight!!
