UPDATE: I must’ve been too dehydrated, because my blood didn’t want to flow. It clotted and we had to give up less than halfway through. 😔 The worst part is that I can’t donate again for 8 weeks even though they didn’t get a full unit of blood. This has happened once before. They told me to start hydrating a couple days ahead of time going forward. I drink a lot of water but I guess not enough. Or maybe I need more electrolytes. Idk. If anyone has tips, I’d love to hear (read) them.
O- and CMV-
I do it for the juice boxes. 🧃 (I’m half kidding)
The last photo is what I took home. I had to practice great restraint.
