Honestly I'm like that on the inside I Ijust ant the cute nurses see me freaking out. My heart rate was high going in and the little nurse commented on it, I told her it's just the preworkout I had taken earlier that morning. Pretty sure she knew I was bullshitting but she was sweet enough to let it slide.

I always get the grandma nurse and I'm not talking about the GILF's. So I let the water works flow.

I donated last week, booked back in for 3months time. Feel fresh like an oil change and a great way to get the hemoglobin down win win

Definitely, I feel better overall but my workout this morning was mediocre. May just have been an off day or may be the reduced reds, either way still worth giving, I'll bounce back.

nice buddy ,im donating every 3 months aswell +1
the feeling after is awesome !!

herpjunkie111's picture

It is. I'm actually changing from 3 months to every 8 weeks, think it will help in the long run keeping the oil cleaner.

alekaras's picture

how can you donate every 8 weeks? private clinic or something ?cause here in greece I cant even a day earlier then the 3 month mark...

herpjunkie111's picture

Yeah we can do every 8 weeks here with the blood banks.

+2. Part of my routine as well.

Yep, should be as much a part of TRT and cycling as eating like a hoss and pinning gear.

That's crazy man. I would just go ahead and get the self kit and if you know a nurse or other medical professional that can hit a vein with ease get them to help you out. I'd have a hard time sticking a vein with a 16 gauge - yikes!!

I wish we had a donation day where i worked. It would make it easy. Im due in sept. hope the bus comes to town. Or its an hour drive to the nearest place. +2 for getting your oil changed and saving a life.

herpjunkie111's picture

Thanks Bill, already feel better honestly. When it's time to donate I always feel a bit sluggish compared to how I feel afterward, so most certainly worth the few minutes to do it.
