More blood needed

While I was at local med center for my neck today, I got a quick finger prick blood check. My Hgb was down more to 8.2. Since it was 9.0 on Tuesday, it will probably be down to 7.5 by Monday. They faxed the results to my hematologist. We arranged for a blood type cross and match at an open Univ clinic on Saturday afternoon so that the blood bank can get me some blood for transfusion early next week.

I am now scheduled for transfusion on Tuesday, but wait listed for Monday. May end up with conflict and need to reschedule MRI. I had planned to drive to Rochester and visit my mother-in-law on Saturday, but will now stay in Minneapolis for the weekend.
