My daughter is incarcerated currently related to Meth. She was taken to infirmary for fatigue and told that her blood counts were critically low. Apparently some component in her blood should be above 12% but shes a little over5%.They are giving her medication to bring levels up and told her that blood transfusion would be next if the counts didnt increase. Of course I have limited info but doesnt it make sense to go ahead with transfusion at that level?
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. Transfusion of blood is necessary in a patient of anemia with cardiac failure specifically.2. However, if its improving, then the best method would be to continue medication to improve.3. Blood transfusion has its own complications, and unless necessary should be avoided. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
