Question.
My MC gets a bone marrow transplant that they think is working. Eventully graft versus host shows up, and the leukemia reappears.
Would it make sense for her to have another transplant from the same donor as before? To just try again? Or would it be redundant--if it didn't work the first time, it won't ever work?
Sorry if I'm missing some fundamental medical fact. I've tried Google and I can't figure out what the options are after a failed transplant. Help?
