My husband had his auto stem cell transplant 2 weeks and 2days ago. His blood count numbers have recovered well. He is having upset stomach and some diareha he is still pretty week and tired and doesn't have much of an appetite. Is this pretty normal. We have only been out of the hospital 2 days.

Thanks Dana

Hi Dana,

Its been 3 months since my husband's SCT. During that three months he had, just once,diarrohea and an upset stomach. But his appetite was pretty good throughout. Our haematologist told us to see him immediately if it continued. But it lasted for only 3 days.

During the three months after his SCT, we were told that he should not eat anything raw, water must be boiled and no sauces. Basically, everything should be boiled.

Hope this helps...take care
