Thanks Dorothy, Bridget & HLM...

Does anyone know about hematology? I have an appt w/ a hematologist today in about 30 min. I have no idea what to expect or where this will lead, but I guess I'll have some answers in a couple of hours. Wish me luck.

I don't know anything about it and I hate the sight of blood. I always have to focus on something on the other side of the room when I get blood drawn.

Here's a thought...you know how some people claim to *feel* the donor of their organ in different ways? Some have memories of the donor that freak them out, etc. I wonder if anything like that has ever happened when you get blood from someone. That would be cool. Unless of course the person just had really bad memories. Then that would suck.

I hope you feel better Noura!!

Bridget, after I had postpartum hemorrhaging with Malek I had to have two transfusions. I freaked the first time the blood went into my arm. It just totally grossed me out but I knew if I didn't, I could die. It was just a weird feeling but I never felt like anything from the other person.

Hi there....

Just thought I'd check in to see if the old gang was here. Glad to see "the old gang" and some new "faces". I'm very happy to see all the new babies and "future" babies. Congratulations!

Glad to see the usual topics haven't changed much...some things never get too old to discuss, do they? :)

Have a good one!

MOODY! I've missed you! Glad to see you pop in. :star:

Update on my blood crud... (haha, that rhymes): After spending almost 2 1/2 hrs at the hematology office, they decided that I need to get an "iron infusion" in lieu of a blood transfusion for now. I talked them into letting me do it on Saturday so that I wouldn't have to cancel any more appts tomorrow (and lose more money). So, Saturday morning, I'll be laid up in the hospital for 4 or 5 hours getting iron infused into my body. Fun, fun! :blink: Follow up on Thursday to make sure it's doing what it's supposed to and if not, do it again and possibly run more tests.

As for the transfusions Bridget, I've had 2 before and never felt any thing but a little more energy. It creeps me out though and I have to put a towel over the iv so I don't have to look at it. It's particularly uncomfortable when the blood is still cold. This iron infusion will be a new thing for me, so we'll see, but I assume it will be pretty similar. Blech...

Good luck with everything Noura. Hopefully the iron infusion will not be bad. I had only one and it did take some time to get it but I was in the hospital overnight. It may cause some constipation so just be prepared.

Moody??? Kara!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG! I have been freaking wondering about you woman!!! I checked your page a few times to see if I could tell if you had been on lately. I hope you and the family are doing well!! Stop in more often stranger girl!!!
