Gave blood today...

and fainted, was sweating profusely and had a mild seizure, obv blacked out

i was there for about an hour being attended to by the whole staff, finally was able to recover and drive home after overeating an assortment of cookies, subsequently puking when i returned to the house

i have thin blood, the nurse made a comment how it was flowing out fast when she was inserting the tube, it only took 5 minutes to fill a whole bag, they said it was the fastest they've seen in a while

apparently my blood pressure dropped to dangerously low levels soon after they were finished taking blood, it was 110/70 before so not sure maybe it was the rush of the loss of blood so fast

was an interesting day

Better to not drink a 1.75 of liquor before giving blood.

UVA, please correct me if I am wrong, but I thought you weren't allowed to give blood if you have HIV?

anybody who has ever had hot steamy gay sex can't give blood, so 99% of CM is ruled out
