More blood

I had another blood transfusion this morning, starting at 7 am. It went pretty quick so that I made it to a luncheon at 11:30, part of a conference where I spent the afternoon. A blood test before the transfusion showed that my Hgb was 8.2, higher than I thought it might be. I also found out that my Hgb was actually 8.9 on Thursday, not the 8.4 that I had been told. With two units of blood, it should be over 10 by now. I am supposed to have another blood test on Thursday and will then decide what I do this weekend. I would like to travel to Michigan with my mother and the rest of my brothers and sisters over Memorial Day.
