Blood Transfusion.
Had to be in renal ward at 8am for a blood cross match. Since my Hb has gone way down to 5.0g/dl, I will need a blood transfusion.
Had trouble finding a vein in my hand, so after a couple of unsuccessful and not to mention painful pokes, decided to go for breakfast with my mom first since I hadn't eaten. We had dim sum, which was nice. I love dim sum.
After finally getting my iv line in, my transfusion of 2 units packed red cells started at 3pm. Finally finished at 10pm. Thankfully, I didn't have to spend the night at the hospital, but the nurses just warned me to go straight to the ER if I came down with a fever or rashes.
