A member asked:

Why would the hospital be taking a lot of blood from my girlfriend and she looks weaker and weaker every time. they keep saying its for tests.

Blood tests: When the diagnosis is in doubt multiple blood tests and follow-up blood tests are done in order to make a diagnosis. In prolonged hospitalization multiple blood drawing contributes only slightly to existing anemia. Physicians are aware of this and only order necessary blood tests.
