transfusions

I am having chemo in quite the same way. I have had to have transfusions two different times. The chemo reduces your hemoglobin. After a transfusion I feel quite a bit stronger.
Wish my fellow warrior well and I am sending prayers for strength and courage.

My brother was diagnosed one year ago and bladder was removed in February. He's been on chemo since- frequently changing up the schedule and specific drug. Now he's on a one day a week chemo, 2 weeks off. They did this because his blood counts keep going down. He just had a second round of transfusions. What does this mean? He has a hard time talking about any of it and not sure if these transfusions are indicative of things progressing.
