No longer, but I've given about 100 pints in my time.

I used to give blood but they don't want it any more due to the drugs that I am on.

I fainted on one occasion - my face landed on a plate of biscuits.

The nearest that I get these days is when I have blood tests done - which has to happen all too often.

Will give my 76th in a couple of weeks.

Cloverjo

Yes me. I wanted to donate plasma or platelets or whatever as well, but I'm not big enough.

I did up until I had Endocarditis in '09, now they don't seem to want it any more.

Grrr, that was me ^^^with the Endocarditis, didn't notice Tash had logged on.

Sadly no, I'm insulin dependant so they won't let me :(

ChillDoubt

Yes, 38 at the last count.
Surprisingly the only regular donor in the department where I work, shocking really.

I used to but when I started menopause I developed a habit of passing out after donation. After I had done it twice and hit the floor in a spectacular fashion, I was thanked and asked not to come again because I was scaring the other donors! I am now aged out.

yeah used to - O+
foreign travel - hepatitis - and then cancer screwed all that

I did, for many years....until they told me that my blood group (AB+) wasn't that useful! Only 3% of the population has it and people with AB group can receive blood from A, B and O donors. So....not really needed!
