Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
If I know someone who will be needing a bone marrow transplant and I want to know if I’m an eligible donor for them how would I get HLA Typed? Do I need to apply to be a donor before I can get tested? If I get tested and I’m not compatible with them will I need to be okay with still donating for someone else’s transplant or could I take my name off of the list?
