Gave blood today

[JM750]

I tried to give blood 6 months ago and they denied me at the Red Cross cause my B/P was elevated. (was from the AAS)

since then my dr put me on another med for it and has worked great. So I figured I'd give it another shot.
After answering a million questions and a couple little tests, they gave me a bed to lay on and did the dirty deed.
I cant say I feel any better, cause I was feeling good anyway. But I know it is alwasy good to get rid of the old stuff and make some new.

be sure you wait a month after stopping the accutane before donating again, I assume you didnt start that yet.

You do whole blood or the red blood cell machine? The needles for whole blood look like juice box straws. Like 14 ga. The needles on the REd blood cell machine are smaller I think.

I donate whole blood every 2 months. Ya they use a 16g needle I believe
