After the donation

After your stem cell donation, we ask you to take part in a donor follow-up. This helps us to keep a close eye on your well-being.

We ask you to take part in a donor follow-up programme. This helps us to keep a close eye on your recovery and wellbeing.

The first donor follow-up takes place four weeks after your stem cell donation. It consists of a blood test to check your blood values have returned to normal after the donation and a questionnaire.

You will receive the questionnaire, directly after your donation, from the DKMS team. Please return the completed health questionnaire, together with the results of your blood test, to followup@dkms.org.uk.

In addition, you will receive a letter for your family doctor.
