Yes


Can your blood type change because you had a blood transfusion?

No. You might be thinking of a treatment for sickle-cell anemia, in which a sibling's bone marrow cells are transplanted into a sickle-cell person, and the donor cells take up permanent residence in the recipient's body. But this is a very different thing. A person's DNA is complete in each and every cell of their body. Nothing changes a person's DNA. Ever. Not possible.

I want to have a DNA test done for my son and I and I want it to be done with a blood test not a swab. ?

You can have a blood test done, but believe it or not the technology is gearing more towards the swab and the swab is as accurate. One of the reasons is the fact that sometimes people might have a blood transfusion or bone marrow transplant which can jeorpadize the test result.
