Hi,

I don't quite know what rejecting transfusions means.

If it's the same problem I have then it's to do with having so many transfusions that you develop antibodies and it becomes harder and harder to find donors that match.

I now have to have my x match test done at least 24 and preferable 48 hours before the transfusion is needed. I'm also pre medicated with steroids and anti histamine injections.

I hope this has helped.
