Hi Chirley,
No wonder that you feel tired when you have such problems at your job and have a HGB value of 80 two weeks before next transfusion!
I still can´t really understand why you get 5 units of RBC:s instead of more frequent transfusions
- as far as I understand the bone marrow will lose more of the capacity to make RBC:s if your HGB is very high after a transfusion.
Your heart has to work much harder when your HGB is low - you (and your dr) don´t know how long it will stand the stress.
Your neutrophils are low but you obviously manage without getting infections I don´t know anything about how low lymphocytes will affect you.
Your platelets are very good
- I wish mine were at the same level.
Kind regards
