transfusion dependent
Hi all,
For those of you who are transfusion dependent, or your loved ones are, do you all get the transfusions in the hospital? I feel a little uncomfortable, walking down a long corridor of sick people in the hospital, with all my blood counts so low. Does anyone wear a mask or gloves? I am curious because I got a blood transfusion last Wednesday and am now home sick with a fever. Any similiar experiences?
thank you,
Donna
