The patient needs blood transfusion for now. But before this, it is very important to know the cause of anemia. Please consult me online with reports. I will let you know some initial tests that are required after watching the reports. And only then go for blood transfusion, else the results will get changed after giving blood.
Next Steps
consult me with reports asap.
