Im supposed to donate thursday will they turn the blood down for thc or do they even care
I just thought that earlier.
When I was REALLY broke, the hubby and I would give blood. Turned out that the cute little gal doing the blood collecting lived a couple of blocks from us and was a head, too! Bobbie had the nicest touch with the needle. Got to be friends with her and her hubby, Van. (If you two are reading this, give me a yell!) About the only problem that could occur is if some poor soul was allergic to cannabis.- Granny:hippy:
I was wondering about that too actually. I've thought a lot about donating blood, but of course it's full of THC, not to mention synthetic opiates. Lol, could somebody with a really low tolerance get the blood of somebody with a lot of morphine or oxy or something and get high? Well probably not but it's a funny thought...
They don't check, I'm pretty sure by the time it gets put in someone any drugs that may be in the blood have broken down, plus to make it last longer they may spin it down to plasma
Im pretty sure I've donated blood while I was stoned before. I think unless it is a deadly chemical in your blood they won't care.
I donate blood all the time and nothing has been mentioned yet :thumbsup: More people should donate blood. Really not that bad at all :jointsmile:
I worked at a plasma center and I can you tell you they don't check for drugs. Just HIV, HEP B and C, and at our place Syphillis also. The only thing is you have to make sure not to smoke before you donate because it can raise your pulse and blood pressure and those have to fall within certain guidelines. Also you can make a hell of alot more money donating plasma. With blood you can only donate every 56 days-that's how long it takes to regenerate RBC's. But with plasma you can donate twice a week as long as you eat right and are always well hydrated.
Up here in Canada we don't get squat for donating blood. Just the feeling you've done something nice :thumbsup:
Yea tell me where i can get paid for my plasma and il turn it into my part time job
and what is plasma? :confused: sorry for the stupidness
Its the liquid your blood cells are in
I given blood alot, mine never had some disease so they can give into to prenatal new borns. I dont get paid but I love to tell chicks that I save babies on the weekends. They talk to you confidentially and dont even ask about drugs, only if youve ever shared needles or fucked African hookers. I asked about weed and they said it didn't matter
man I'm not allowed to give blood because I lived in Italy for over 6 months and I guess they think I might have mad cow disease cells floating around in me, even though it was 20 years ago and I dont eat meat. I don't understand it and I really wish they would lift the ban on getting blood from people who lived there. I'm tempted just to lie, but my dad said that would be a bad idea.
thnx for the replies :thumbsup:
Some places pay 100 bucks as a new donor for the first week then it's based on your weight. You can make 70 to 80 bucks a week just laying in a chair for 45 minutes twice a week.:thumbsup:
I kinda wanna do that, and I'll only spend the money from there on my Herb...
(Turning 18 in just a lil' bit)
I want to give blood,
only for the free cookies and orange juice
and the kick ass t-shirt, oh what a sweet shirt
But thc is a deadly chemical. It's the root of all evil. It causes all the world's problems.Quote:

but where do you go?
i've always wanted to give blood. at first i couldnt because i didnt weigh enough, then because of my tattoos then because I lived out of the country
Tats???Quote:

18?
16 and over 110 pounds or something. i think thats it. you need parental permission if you are under 18
oh really?
do u still get paid if your under 18?
lol
I had tried to donate blood once, but they wouldn't do to the fack I have had sex with a man and they were afraid I was gonna get AIDs in the blood supply. Made me depressed as hell, I seriously broke down because I felt so singled out

I just went to the canadian bloodbank's website to see if I could give blood. Drugs don't even seem to appear in the criteria section, they just want to make sure you're not sick. But oh man, their site said they take a HALF LITER of blood. That just seems frightening to me, when I had my nose surgery last december and lost a decent amount of blood, maybe like only a 1/6 of a liter, I was in shock the whole night I was at home. Felt kind of like after just recovering from being electrocuted, I was shaking a bit, my jaw couldn't stop harshly chattering, and when i smoked a joint I started hyperventilating and barely kept from blacking out.
So yeah, I'm not giving away any 1/2 liter...:eek:
Shit, my pajama wardrobe relies soley on those blood donatiopn free shirts...
I don't care how moral it is, i'm not doing it...
only way would be to save my own family, sorry!
I respect all blood doners, i just couldn't go through with it...
That's cruel. Lucky through all my years in Europe, I never lived in a country where they had mad cow, so they accept my blood.Quote:
