He needs to be urgently admitted in hospital and thorough work up is necessary before its too late to diagnose the cause of progressive decrease in haemoglobin levels. Also you didnt tell what ultrasound reports revealed, did he had spleenomegaly or not as in some cases spleen can be hyperfunctioning or blood cells are defective. Meanwhile keep atleast 4pints of blood arranged for an emergency purpose too
