Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. You have been transferred blood, because your hemoglobin was low.2. Blood transfusion alone would not correct the hemoglobin to normal levels. You would still have low hemoglobin levels, which will cause shortness of breath, fatigue and rapid heart rate.3. You need to avoid excessive strain till your hemoglobin returns to normal levels. Check your hemoglobin and also get a reticulocyte count to evaluate for bone marrow response. Nutritional improvement is necessary to improve hemoglobin. Supplements of iron, folic acid and It B12 would be helpful. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
