Blood in Urine, Transfusions?

Question

My friend is having blood transfusions for hemochromatosis, and she's feeling weak, nauseous, and whatnot, but I assume that's normal (is it normal?). But she's seeing blood in her urine. Is that normal with transfusions? Does she need to go see a doctor ASAP, or can she go tomorrow? Does she need to worry about this?

Answer 1

Are you sure that's what she has? Usually they take blood OUT for that condition. Giving blood to her won't help.

It is an overload of iron and the treatment is to remove blood from the body.

Oh, blood in the urine is never normal. She should call a doc or go to ER, especially since she is sick.
