Can someone help me with my question?
What does it mean when doctors say 80% partial response, after stem cell transplant. Does this mean the transplant did not work?

Bactrim side effects/hair loss
I started taking Bactrim the early part of September 2025 after my CAR T and have been on it continuously since. I have started experiencing hair loss (at a more rapid rate than usual) I am 66 years old woman and have had thinning over the years. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I have my 6-month CAR T follow up next week. I may request that I be taken off it. Please let me know and if it grew back once stopped.

Medicare vs group health insurance for Car-T coverage.
Hello All, Is a group health insurance plan more likely to cover Car-T as apposed to Medicare? If anyone has personal experience or knows from others experiences and would like to share, thank you in advance. I’m trying to decide whether to stay on my husband’s health insurance or switch over to Medicare now that I am 65. Best, Robin

Mouth Sores
Can anyone recommend a treatment, supplement or medicine to help eliminate constant mouth sores? They are so painful and seem to be getting worse. Thank you.
