Fear with blood transusion
My father is 69 years old, weighing about 70 KGS. He has been diagnosed with Diabetes for more than 30 years, and has also been diagnosed with kidney diseases and cataract. For almost 1-1.5 years, he has been suffering from anemia. His hemoglobin was 8.5 from the starting of the disease and then it eventually reduced, now it is in 7.
He is regularly eating nutritious foods (which is possible to eat by being a kidney disease patient). He has been eating eggs, meats, fruits and fishes - but nothing is working and HIS HEMOGLOBIN IS NOT INCREASING.
Now, the doctor recommended blood transfusion but he is highly feared to do so. Being a patient of Asthma also, he is in fear that during the transfusion, this asthma will increase and his condition will deteriorate.
Now, is there any other way to increase his hemoglobin pretty fastly without doing the transfusion?
Thank you.

According to your father history he is suffering from anaemia .
Anaemia can be caused by due to low iron profile,
Low Vitamin B12 and Vitamin C ,
Low erythropoietin level and
Any bleeding issue as pile with bleeding type
Or
Side effects of some medicine .
Don't take injection directly if in the near future don't require any surgical operation.
