day in the hospital

today, i have to spend another day at the hospital.
just came home a little while ago
today in the morning, i was walking in my room, after that i was feeling very breathless. so i decided to have CBC count done. in that, my HB and platelet count were low.
so, i have gone to the hospital for the blood and platelets transfusion( platelets help in clot formation when there is an injury)
 
as my platelet count was too low, so i needed fresh platelets instead of the stored ones with fresh platelets, the count increases 4 times as compared to stored ones.
 transfusion of blood and platelets has to be done carefully as there might be a reaction. i also usally feel itching with small swellings so avil and hydrocortisome( an antiallergic) had to given after which i felt fine.
 
the gums are still the same. they almost cover up my lower teeth. only the tips are visible.
overall the day was alright as i spent most of it sleeping.
