Blood Transfusions

Got a call from my immunologist today, Blood Transfusions start July 9th every 3 weeks for 6 months.

After that it will be the protein Pen (Ouch)

Hopefully after a year it will increase the antibodies and protein in my blood and lower the number of chest infection

The long road home , but I will get there.

Many thanks coffrop ????

When I went for chemo infusions they supplied drinks and lunch. It didn't hurt and those on blood seemed to be OK. It just takes a while, remember plenty of books and puzzles etc. If you're lucky you will get a nice comfy lazyboy chair.

Let us know how you do.
