It was indeed mine. It's taken two years for them to OK me to donate again.MKCP 1985 said:Well done! I don't give as often as I should, but I do give a couple of times per year, usually.
It was your own, right? :lookaroun
They had decided that anyone who had received blood before a certain date can not donate. I'd had an operation about twenty years ago and could not remember if I'd received any blood.
The hospital wanted about $50 to tell me if that was the case (the hospital from the same organisation that wants me to donate the blood ). I refused and it's taken two years to sort the mess out.
The hospital sill won't tell me, but I was interviewed by a doctor from the Blood service who concluded that I would not have received blood.
