"Blood transfusion"

About: Lincoln County Hospital / General medicine

(as the patient),

On Thursday the doctors told me I would be given two units of blood. One on Thusday evening and the second Friday morning. I would then be discharged. On Friday morning Doctor rounds I was asked how I got on with the transfusion. I told them it didn't happen and still hadn't. They asked me why. I told them I had no idea. I was not the person to ask. Eventual I did get the two units of blood and was discharged at 7 pm. My partner having a 4 hr wait to drive me home.
