My Hgb drop experience...

Over the years, when hospitalized, the Lab techs would do my Hgb 2 to3 times a day around the units transfused. Of course YMMV but the average "bump" would be 10 to 12 points (g/L) depending on the actual volume in the bag. The drop for me is 1 point per day, and that has been the same with me for the last four years.
