day -3
It looks like I won't be heading to the ICU, because there are no vacant rooms for the moment. Therefore, they plan to transfer me to telemetry on the 12th floor for monitoring.
Today I start tacrolimus and sirolimus, which are two immunosuppressive drugs aimed at reducing GVHD. At this very moment, I'm receiving my fourth day of fludarabine and later on today, I'll be receive ATG for the first time. I was told that ATG is infused over 6-8 hours.
