How to find out what my blood type is
How I did it: 1.go to your local blood bank and tell them you want to donate.
2. you fill out a survey about your health and other health related questions
3.answer all questions honestly, you're donating to help other people, so you don't want to get anyone else sick because of you. Even though they do test all blood before it is used for someone else.
4. they will look over your questions, take a small sample from the finger to test your iron or something, take your blood pressure etc.
5. you donate blood and save someones life. (if you donate platelets it takes about 2 hours longer but you sometimes get paid)
6. you get cookies and juice, for free!!
7. they will send you a card with your blood type on it. and its free!
Lessons & tips: read all questions carefully, and be honest.
breathe deeply and drink lots of water.
