I went to er last night i have chronic anemia my blood count was 7.5 was it safe that they sent me home with no transfusion usually when i'm that low?

Depends: If you are dizzy , short of breath or have any symptoms you should go back to the emergency room. If your hemoglobin is normally at 7.5 then it is likely that is why they have not transfused you. I would go back to the emergency room should there be more concern. Good luck.
