slashyI gave blood today for the Red Cross, which, always a cool thing to do, but.... instead of the usual 10mins it should take, I took 30mins to fill the bag.
Which means, 30mins of a big ass needle in my arm, while I had to open and close my fist over a very hard stress ball, which in turn shifted the needle in my arm every single time.
In short? OW!
I was told I shouldn't give blood again, because I was right there at the time limit (according to them) and it's not good that I take too long.
I'll probably give again, but not anytime soon. Maybe it's because of my weight.....
