I was thinking of giving blood and wanted to know whether or not there was a protocol to follow before donating !?!
Anything like fasting hrs before going ?
Water intake ?
Ceasing of any supplements , vitamins or foods ?
Thank you in advance for your responses !!!
Nope show up they will do some test like bp and other things first time took.me 2 hrs paper work and bp was high after that it's a 30-40 min thing brother
they check your bp and iron levels. otherwise fill out the paper work and go for it. I only do whole blood its easy and quick they may try to sell you on other stuff that's up to you. I tried doing the platelets thing or something where they put fluid back in to you.... ya, NO. that was awful
Yea , I don't want to do anything different like platelets , just donate blood !!!
I was reading on the other different types of things u can go for , as far as a donation , but I think I'll stay with the basic !!!
If your taking EQ or Anadrol maybe every 4-5 weeks. Best to get your hematocrit levels checked. Hematocrit is the ratio of red blood cells to total volume of your blood. The more red blood cells, the thicker your blood, the harder it is on your heart to pump the blood. The idea behind therapeutic phlebotomy (donating blood) would be lower blood volume lower blood pressure. Less stress on the heart.
