Haematology

We spent from 11.00 to 20.00 in the Haematology day care centre at King's, where there were too many patients for the staff to cope. Blood test finally 14.00, results back 16.00 and the transfusion started at 17.50, finishing 20.00. Hb was 95. not as low as I expected from the way I was feeling, but a drop from 106 only four weeks ago on September 11.
