Dr. Silviu Pasniciuc answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Rehydrate: Hydration is needed for isolated, acute dehydration, if your symptoms are recurrent or chronic, workup is needed. A transfusion will only be needed if you have significant anemia. B - may receive blood from 0- and B- and donate to all B and AB.
