I don't think anyone LOVES needles, LOL. Except maybe those people who can't stop getting tattoos... |

I HATE needles, I really do. I hate having blood tests, but have to as part of your human MOT lol. |

Yeah I know it is all for a good cause and everything. And I understand all the benefits. But I absolutely hate needles. I had blood test for a few things over the years, as you do, and hated everyone of them. |
|
Yep, I started accidently though, I didn't realise id be signed up to go back. I origionally gave blood in college to get out of a lesson i hated . |
|
Oh dang it, I'm not allowed, I guess I'll leave you lot to the needles then |

It's been a while since I've donated, but it just depends on the time and location of the donation. There was one time I received a phone call and they said that it was going to take place at our local prison.... I said no. |

huh, I've never felt even woozy afterwards. One time I actually gave blood, and then had 3 hours of hardcore basketball practice immediately afterwards, and I was fine. Never felt weak or light-headed once. |

Actually I can't give blood right now but when I can in January, I will. |

I said "no" because unfortunately, I'm not technically allowed to give blood. I used to before, but turns out if you've lived in Germany for 6+ months during a certain period in the early 80s, you can't, cause you can be a carrier for something. |

I'd love to give blood but I am shocking with needles. I don't have a phobia or anything but I always pass out about 5 minutes afterwards. After a blood test they took one needles worth. I was fine for a while, then I was out for a good forty minutes, so giving blood would be a mission |
|
Yep. Not only does it save lives, but where I live, if there's something unusual on the blood tests they do each time, they will tell you. It's a win-win, so get donating! |
|
I used to donate blood, but I got tired of them calling me every eight weeks (or whatever the minimum interval is). Plus, I worked as a phlebotomist for a while, and I read some journal articles about nerve damage resulting from botched insertions. I need complete tactile stability right down to my fingertips, and I got a bit paranoid. |

LD Counter (as of 07.25.07) = 5 (2 WILDs)
Short-term goal: Recall three full dreams a night for a full week.
Long-term goal: Have three LDs per week for one month.
Longer-term goal: Have one six-hour LD every night! (Shooting too high? We'll see.)
Waking life goal: Round up some NPSG equipment to study my own sleep patterns.
Well I've given blood and for me the "thought" of giving blood was alot worse than the actual "giving". I just make it a point to NEVER.. I repeat NEVER watch as they stick the needle in (whether it be giving blood or getting a shot). |
