Blood transfusion number 3 :/ Been feeling sleepy for last couple o weeks and have been taking naps throughout the day which have gradually been getting longer as the days go by. I honestly thought i had just been doing too much and was needing to rest.
Yesterday i began to worry and think something was wrong i spent the entire day in bed got up for a bite to eat and had to go straight back to bed i was tottally exhausted. So this morning when my district nurse arrived to provide my hickman line care i asked her if she could give my bloods a check to ensure everything was ok.
So this afternoon my GP called me and told me my bloods had dropped an unbelieveable amount and that i had to be blood transfused as soon as possible. within 10 mins he had arranged a bed for me at the beatson and i was on my way for my transfusion. It just goes to show that some Gp's actually give a damn.. and i have met a good few who havent cared at all which is so frustrating and makes it such a pleasant experience when you get some attention and care:)
I'm hooked up and waiting for my couple of pints of blood to arrive noo so hopefully be rosey cheeked and fresh tomorrow when i meet up with my consultant and some sort of action plan for my treatment.. fingers crossed x
