the same thing happened to me the last time i went to donate
still no idea why

we must have the same water here in gateshead that you have in leeds

[clareypied]

Agreed! I felt really stupid too!

I'm going to give it one more go in September and if it happens again, I've been told that I shouldn't really be doing it as it's detremental to my health!

[lady_lillith79]

i havent given since
johno wont let me, he was more worried then i was

[clareypied]

Yeah, Gareth is of the same opinion but I want to give it one more go, you know, just in case!

[brummie_ninja]

Thats a bit pants. Hope it's just a one off. It happened to me once once when I gave blood at the hospital and has made me nervous about giving blood ever since. It could just be that your body fighting off some virus and you'll be fine next time (fingers crossed)

Also fingers crossed on your maths test. I'm sure you've done a lot better than you think.

[clareypied]

Yeah, you could be right and it does put you off, feeling faint is not enjoyable! :p

Will tell you more about the maths thing if you pop round after Kabumbo!

[maviscruet]

Fingers crossed on the test. You'll get there....

[clareypied]

Hehe, thanks, it was 'orrible! :p

[clareypied]

Yeah, it's frustrating as I've given so many times previous to this without a hitch! I like to know I'm doing something that will help others, so to be told it's probably a good idea if I don't do it is a bit upsetting!

I'll have to do the Race for life or that swim that there's a thread about on the Lush forum instead ;)

Ans thanks re: maths test, will update as soon as I know!

See, I'd have probably fainted/had a fit, like I did last time they stuck a needle in me for my CT scan. See, I have the proper gay.

:P

On the plus side, I can only donate my corneas and heart valves, I'm expressly forbidden from giving anything else away!

You're probably a bit tired/fighting something off. I'm normally better with needles if I'm not tired or stressed.

[clareypied]

Aha, I'd forgotten about your last needle-based episode! :p I'm thinking you lot are probably right about me being tired/stressed, it also may be something to do with my anaemia but then again I has been having plenty of iron, so meh.

I needs more exercise to perk me up methinks! Up for Swimming on Sunday? ;)

[lady_lillith79]

did they do the anaemia test bfore they let you donate?

[clareypied]

Yeah, and strangely it sank like a stone, it usually hovers a bit first, which I thought was rather odd!
