Making memories

Jeff had yet another blood transfusion Saturday. In the event he does get Keytruda next week, it has the propensity to drop these levels. So in lieu of waiting until he was 6.9, they went ahead and ordered the blood transfusion at 7.3.

Chemo induced anemia

Due to this, the next chemo has been postponed by a week The MO says the only way anemia can be dealt is blood transfusion if Hb goes below 8 g/dl. Should we go ahead with next cycle or wait till Hb level gets better. Is there no alternative to blood transfusion for treating anemia.

ATARI trial

A 5 day break and then the following month a week and a blood transfusion. A dose reduction and now things seem to be on the up. I’m off now to celebrate in the sun and hope this gives some positivity to you all.

UPDATE! from last post. RE: Fibro Scan

At a young age of 17 I needed a Blood transfusion a very very long time ago. We can only assume that is how I contracted HEP C. After about 25 years I discovered what I had and was shocked.

High ferritin post transplant

That makes sense, but I am puzzled as to why this did not arise or come to light some time ago as I had my SCT almost exactly 3 years ago and the last blood transfusion some two and a half years ago.
