Velociraptor Aug 2021 4:40pm, 3 Aug 2021 53,668 posts	0 Velociraptor I've had some sort of message from the blood service at least once a day since I booked my appointment. Today, three days before my appointment, it's telling me to eat well and drink plenty of water to keep well.

NRGEE Aug 2021 7:54am, 4 Aug 2021 595 posts	0 NRGEE i was declined as a blood donor today as my haemoglobin was 118g/l and has to be 125g/l or above for a lady. A bit peeved as had cost £15.50 taxi fares! Am a 1st time donor and with a complex medical history it needs reviewing by 2 clinicians and my GP may be contacted as well as my psychiatrist.
