Can We Give Blood?



Recommended Posts

I'm curious if anyone knows or has had problems with donating blood. I can't imagine why? I'm 9 months out, feeling great and would like to continue giving to others as a universal donor.

Not for a year, according to my surgeon :)

Thanks! I'll ask my surgeon as well, was hoping to hear some vets had done it successfully. I'm a big believer in donating life!

I am so glad to hear that after everything, people are stil wanting to give blood. I work for the Red Cross and I dontate regularly also. I was wondering this myself, I believe to be elgible to donate, you have to be completely healed and no problems or complications for at least 6 months. Your hemoglobin also must be at least 12.5 to donate.
