So a couple of years ago the Blood bank found out I had
Polycythemia (far too many red blood cells), now I also have
thrombocytosis (far too much Platelets). If I didn’t donate I wouldn’t even know...
- Donate whole blood - get rid of extra red for a while - can’t makes me ick for a few days (well I can but prefer no ick)
- Donate Platelets - get rid of extra Platelets for a while - can’t vein not suitable (tried once and never again)
- Continue donating Plasma - yes - if I don’t.. I’m starting to think I may have extra of that also.
*sigh*
