My anxiety kicked in in a big way that day. Couldn’t get out of there quick enough.Don't get sick Mikey. You go in to a hospital and once your on a bed they will hook you up.
Any number of reasons people can not give blood. All are valid.

Glad you tried Mikey, like I said, not everyone can do it.I tried the donation thing once. Lasted less than 15 mins. Felt dizzy and sick to my stomach for a week after. Too scary of a feeling to do that again.
Thats Awesome Mikey...Me tooIt was a weird experience to say the least. But on a side note,If anything were to happen to me causing my death,I am signed as an organ donor. If anything,that would make me feel I’ve contributed something to society or to make someone’s life better.
I was over there for 29 days in 1983. If I would have been there for 30 days I would have been dis-allowed like you. Go figure.A number of years ago, a group of us from the fire dept went to donate and that is when I found out that I am not allowed. I spent way too much time in the UK during their mad cow crisis. As much as I tried, I could not convince their medical control (Canadian Blood Services) to let me donate. So I ended up being the cheer leader.
They are very strict on the criteria that they use, it changes from time to time, they have to consider everything and for the recipients as well.A number of years ago, a group of us from the fire dept went to donate and that is when I found out that I am not allowed.

Yep As frustrating as it was, fully understood it. Ended up being a cheerleader for a couple of hours, LOLThey are very strict on the criteria that they use, it changes from time to time, they have to consider everything and for the recipients as well.
I’ve looked at a couple of the online sites. Have never played on them though. I’m under the impression you need to attach a credit card to some of them,do you not?Congrats MikeysZ06!
Have you considered online betting?
Rather than hand it over to the govt for rediculous odds/returns, you can get 'real' odds online.
I just did a random 4 gamer, for today's games on the site I use. (I don't bet lines, just over under)
Works out to 18.52 to 1.
So you'd get 18.52 x $5 = $92.60 (and the gov't gets nuttin if you miss).
I use sports interaction. Cdn site. I've used it for at least 15 yrs. No issues.
Just FYI.
Good luck!
