No, never blood transfusions. Perhaps it is known not to help this condition. Or I could access another condition from the new blood. I still continue to eat well and watch TV and enjoy life in between the many pains from the other ailments I have. Some days I am walking and others I am in a wheelchair. What I love doing is helping people, animals, birds, etc. Any little thing is so very enjoyable. My goal is to be aware of any help I can do for others. I have been this way for most of my life and to me I cannot and will not stop. (But I am not an angel.)
