Hubby had blood test done this morning at JR in preparation for his op tomorrow.

Have just received a phone call saying that his HB level is 5.6 or 56 whichever way you look at it, which means it has dropped. He needs to have a blood transfusion today.....funny isn't it I just had a feeling that the transfusion on Tuesday didn't do him any good.

Now just hope the clinical nurse reads her emails asap from the doctor (I somehow have my doubt) as you can see I do not have a lot of faith in her !!!!!

Watch this space !!!!!!

Specialists usually liaise directly with haematology, hopefully this will be done.

A worriying time for you having to stay strong. Let us know how matters are resolved.
