Well this Bank Holiday Monday I have booked to do my first blood donation. It is my New Years resolution this year. I feel so proud of myself. Anyone else give blood?

Other previous New Years resolutions that I have acheive was giving up s moking (given up 7 years next month) go to the gym(been going nearly 2 years) Lose weight ( lost 3 stone in 2002) also give up the booze (given up 4 years in July) the oldest resolution was pass my driving test which was my rsolution from when i was 17. I passed 6 days after my 30th birthday so it was 13 years before i did it but i did. LOL
 
Well done Michele.

I would also give blood but I'm anemic so i can't :(
 
I would love to give blood but I am so scared of just having blood tests that I really could not go through with it :( I got to go for another blood test today and I am scared - I hate them so much!

My mum gives blood loads and they have really messed up her arm and last time she went I have never seen her arm so bruised - it is because they put it in then keep taking it out trying to find another vein!
 
I give blood i've done it 5 times now :D hehehe

just waiting for my next stabbing session to come through the door :D

its a fab thing to do..

i was considering bone marrow but owchie...
 
Hi,

Glad to see someone else giving blood too.

I'm on the Anthony Nolan Bone Marrow register and have been for about 5 years. I'm going to ask when I give blood whether its worth me still register on theres too.

I'm also carry donor card too.

I am going to give blood soon, I have a donor sign on my boots card i think that means i am a donor.
 
i once gave blood in high school...what a disaster! i didnt eat breakfast that day and passed out while donating! they had to take off all the equpment, wake me up and then i went home. after all that, i didnt even give the entire pint, just half!
i cant anymore since i have a tattoo. :P
 
I give blood regularly. I couldn't for a while because I was dangerously anaemic because of the coeliac disease - this was before my diagnosis. There's nothing to giving blood.

I also carry a donor card.
 
GUTTED. they wouldnt let me give blood cos i have only been back from holiday 15 days. I have to be back 28 days or more befor they will let me cos the USA and Canada have some sort of virus thing there. GUTTED

SO NEAR BUT YET SO FAR
 
I was asked to do that at college but i found out i couldnt too many drugs in my system apparantly but people thought i was just being mean made me feel like **** walking away everyone giving me evils!
 
i will have to now wait until september 2007 when my daughter is at school cos that was they dont normally do morning appointment only afternoons.
 
they are. its the earliest i can do it. i cant do afternoons with a 2.5 year old until she starts ful time school. i can do mornings when shes at playschool but thats all.
