Hi I wonder if anyone has had this problem, my husband has kidney cancer in both kidneys that has metastasised in his lungs, he was told in November he was anemic and they weren't sure if to give him a blood transfusion but being him he said it was ok, however for a while he’s been losing blood in his urine, he’s been on antibiotics for an infection but after his blood test for the immunotherapy yesterday they cancelled todays treatment and he goes for a blood transfusion in the morning she noticed on the phone how breathless he was and explained his breathlessness (that he was convinced was his lung cancer) was in fact a symptom of low haemoglobin. He asked me to check online what it meant and of course I googled it but wish I hadn’t, on everyone I saw it said most likely his liver has metastasised too but I just said it’s says he will feel better after the blood transfusion my husband isn’t familiar with Google, computers aren’t his thing, I’m just wondering has anyone had this and if so did you feel better after the blood transfusion, thanks for reading
