Asked By:Missmary114 in Stockton, CA

Hi my hemoglobin is 10.7 I am scheduled to have surgery this month. I took a in-house test at a clinic and was told it was 11.6 but when they sent the result in it came back 10.7 again after 10days and me eating everything to raise my hemoglobin. Is it possible to get a iron infusion before a BBL surgery? Thank you for your help.
