What Could Cause Mental Discomfort After Undergoing Blood Transfusion?

I had a blood transfusion 5 pints and ever since I have no feeling of connections for any family or friends as if they were never part of my life...And I have no desire to have anything to do with them...is this because I was almost for dead then the 5 pints of blood?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Your doubt is uncalled for. One US Pint equals 473.2ml. In that case, you had a blood transfusion of 2.366 liters of blood. That is pretty more. But I really see no connection between blood transfusion and mental discomfort.

But there could be other reasons. Other reasons such as trauma, traumatic incident that lead to the transfusion etc. You can always clear your doubt from the doctor who treated you at that occasion. Don't worry. Please confirm.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
