Another 6 months 2 years ago

Damn! Went to give blood today and failed the iron test. So I have to wait 6 months before I can go back. At least I filled out the consent form so I’m sort of one step closer? And they gave me a groovy O+ badge to go with my supercool O+ blood donation card.

I’m still freaking out about the blood letting though. I’m scared to take the little plaster off my arm in case blood starts spurting out in some kind of fire hydrant effect…



Tuesday 2 years ago

Got a letter in the post today to say I’m due back in to give blood, so hopefully can tick this off on Tuesday night. Just as long as I ask before the blood taking in case I freak out again…



I went to give blood today 3 years ago

and they said I should ask next time I go in when they’ll know my blood group and everything. So at least another 3 months for this one.



I think so anyways 3 years ago

Well I emailed the Anthony Nolan Trust to check if my medication would count me out for now but they said depression is fine as long as I can cope with day to day things and I amn’t seeing a therapist. But I am seeing a therapist, but not for depression anymore for social anxiety. And I only see her every 6 weeks now. So I think I’m in yaaay. Of course its going to mean more samples being taken from my body x_x
