Dear lybrate-user, do not have alcohol, or too much spicy food, do not starve either. Just have a normal diet like any other day. Post transfusion drink plenty of fluids and est food rich in iron like spinach bananas etc. And congratulations your 1 unit of blood can help more than 3 or 4 patients. Thank yu from all doctors and all the patients.
