At my doctor’s surgery, there are two regular nurses. One will find the vein for a blood test on the first try and never goes through the other side. The other takes about 4 attempts, goes right through the vein and I’m still bleeding when I get home and there’s a nasty bruise for about a week. The good one is younger.

I know it regenerates, but 2 cups still seems like a lot. Feeling a bit light-headed… need to go lie down….

I have to commend all of you who give blood, I’m unable to – my veins are too small. They can barely get blood when I need lab work.

I’m 18 and I’ve been a blood donor for almost a year… (As of January 13th)
My 4th time is next month.
Don’t worry, Ben. You’ll be fine! Fingers are crossed for you.

They should never use the metric system when they answer that question.
