Give Blood? Page 13

If I had a rare blood group I would be more inclined to I suposse but the idea of needles and all that shizz, no thank you.

What is the most common blood group and which is the most 'desirbale' for a donor, etc?

O positive is the most common.

O neg is the most desirable because it can be given to anyone.

It really doesn't hurt.

Interesting. I'm A+, like nearly all of Norway or Finland as some doctor told me once, apparently....

That is interesting. :)

Would suck to need a blood transfusion in any of those countries and have a different blood type.

My blood donor's card has come in the post. I've given it for the first time and I feel I've done my good deed for the year.

\o/ Wahooooo! I have my next session on June 26th. :P

Mine is quite rare apparently, but I suppose that doesn't mean there is more of a demand for it as it doesn't keep long does it?

It's all proportional I guess. I'm B+!

This thread has reminded me that I have a card I'm supposed to carry round with me all the time - think I had better go and find it later.

My type (AB+) is found in only 3% of the population, but only other AB+ people can use it. However they can also use every other type, so it's not in much demand. I assume AB+ people just get whatever old stuff is lying around and nearing its expiration date.

As you seem to "do drugs" so much, I doubt you'd be elligible.

Laughing out loud

I tried to give blood last night but the daft "nurse" put the needle in completely wrong - felt like a hot needle being put in my arm.

Now I have a terrible bruise and it hurt for like 4 hours after.

Very tempted not to give blood again it's really put me off...

Sue!
