Halophilia,

Many members on the forum have experienced transfusions that did not seem to have as big of an impact as one might predict. It may be the match, the age of the cells transfused, or some other cause, such as the chemotherapy. Hemolysis usually starts to show up in liver and kidney function tests as they are taxed a little more when hemolysis occurs. Some of the blood count machines will show abnormal results when hemolysis is present as well.
