Thank you all for your responses. Mom has to have her blood count done on Monday and they will decide then whether or not to transfuse her. I will let you know how it goes. In the meantime I have just now realized that Dr. Raza is extremely close (about 20 minutes in a car) from where we live...I think it might be worth a trip to see her. I just have to figure how to tell mom's current doctor I would like records and a second opinion without upsetting my mom or him.
