Hemoglobin fall
My mother is 72 years old . Some time back the doctor noticed that her hemoglobin is falling. That is as days pass her hemoglobin level decreases. Then doctors suggested that 2 units of blood should be induced to her before other things could be done to keep her going. We did that but in 2 months her hemoglobin dropped to 4 again . Can you tell me why her hemoglobin is falling so rapidly. She has diabetes too and her kidney has a cyst.
Blood taken from others will not survive in the recipient for more than 1 month it is destroyed by the body basically that maybe problems in RBC formation due to kidney hormones called erythropoietin check up your Kidneys
