Paula,

Wow! No wonder she was feeling tired. I had one week like that back in December. I burned through two units of red cells in a single week. I was at 6.4 on Tuesday, got two units that day, and then was at 6.2 eight days later.

They decided to give me three units at that point, and it really helped get me back on track. I'm sure they will be watching your Mom weekly until things start to improve.

Good luck to you both!

Greg
