This advice sheet is for young people who need to go to hospital because of their aplastic anaemia.
Sometimes you will just need to visit hospital for a daytime appointment that means you can go home again straight afterwards. Sometimes you will need to stay overnight at the hospital or even for a long time. This can be a scary time, especially when you haven’t done it before. But there are lots of things you, your family and your doctors can do to make it easier for you.
