[Closed] Blood Donation - Overcoming Fainting

Mat · 2018-11-19T12:27:16Z

Has any one managed to overcome a tendancy to faint in order to regularly give blood? I'm pretty squeamish and not great with needles, I've donated around 5 times before when I was a student but I had quite a few faints/near faints - I'd get told to come back in a couple of years. After the last one I stopped, it just felt like I was wasting everyone's time and NHS resources. But every time I hear the radio appeals I feel pangs of guilt!

Nah the sign up won't stop me doing it, it's just annoying that it doesn't work!
