It's an up and down condition,some time I feel rotten and don't need any blood, other times I feel great and need 3 units. I have swings in emotions up and down. My wife says "I hope you don't get any crabby blood this time". If I do feel lousy and need blood, I always feel better right away. I do nap a lot, but most of the people at my age nap a lot.Up thru 2/7/12 I have had 284 units of blood, I have always felt fine afterwards.
