Been to the blood bank yesterday to donate blood. Quick test showed I could not donate this time. Iron was at 134 but must be 135 or above to donate. It’s probably due to surgery I had last month, and now i’ve been advised to wait 6 months. Somehow It makes me feel a bit sad and guilty.
This summer was a good example. It was very hot outside, they refused everyone that not drank at lease one cup of water before donating.
There is plenty of snacks and drinks to choose from and you can take as much as you want/feel you need
