CMV re-activated BMT patient

Hello everyone, I am just making this post in hope to get other peoples experience in dealing with a CMV reactivation after having a BMT.

Long story short, about 7 months post BMT had CMV detected in bloodwork, viral load was about 30,000, docs called and said to go on Valganciclovir 900mg twice a day. Have now been on the med and dose for 4 weeks and viral load is under 200 for a couple of weeks now. I am just wondering what other people’s experience has been with Valganciclovir as it’s now starting to affect the blood work, counts are trending downwards. Doc just keeping an eye on everything, from what I have read this can definitely happen after being on the medication at a high dose for a while.

If you have any experience with Valganciclovir and CMV would love to hear your story, thank you so much for your input.
