Thanks, RJKD! I really appreciate your input! I know about T cells. Here is my thought on that. I already have a low immune system right now after HDCs. Plus, I got on remission with surgery. So, if there were some active cells around, they would have showed themselves already in the last two years. Now as far as other cancers go, I think EVB virus induced (attacking B cells) lymphoma could be a concern. I am sure they will evaluate this risk and discuss potential prevention. All this said though, my MELD score is not very high, (low 20s) and I have a blood type O. So, that puts me in a tough spot to even get a liver, even if I am listed....
Btw, I accept all the risks cancer coming back, etc. 3 year mark is 9 months away. If it comes back, it comes back and that will be the end any way. I'd rather die with Option B than A. My 90-day survival is only 75% under current circumstances.
