Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Recovery is possible.
2. Now the hemoglobin is within normal limits and care should be continued
3. Reticulocyte count, hematocrit and red cell indices can reconfirm the increased hemoglobin.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
