I went to a laboratory in oyo town to donate blood but what the woman told me shocked me she said i shouldnt do it that it is not good though shez a friend of mine the next thing she told me was that my blood may not be enough for me then i showed her my pvc from a full blood count i did but she discouraged me that it is bad since then i lost interest but looking forward to donate one day

dingbang:
I hope they don't sell donated blood?

Na im be the bad part, them go collect am free come sell am.
I no do research for this my answer sha

AryaSand:


We are. I feel it's Blessing and a tiny Curse. You can give anyone but to find that one person that will give you is serious problem. And that special injection you have to take before and after childbirth. *Sigh*

Im not even aware about the injection thing.I will have to look that one up later.

I was just worried about the fact that you guys can give anybody but can only get from 0- group which is so difficult to get.

Some hospitals even hoard and sell it for outrageous price

I will try to donate TODAY!!

Lovelyn451:
they don't sell...just #5000 for screening before transfusion

Do your findings before concluding.. They sell blood at Hospital abeg.. Blood is not free.. but they will collect free blood from people

AryaSand:
I would love to the donating gang but I can't even as I'm weight less than 43kg. The two times I donated half pint each was because they couldn't find O- blood anywhere. The dizziness that followed after though, Ferrous was my best friend for like one Month.

Babe you are bold!

I went for blood donation yesterday and I was told that there were no equipment because government has not ed the budget.

sinaj:

Hardly see people that have 0- blood group. You guys are rare gem but I wouldnt wish for it tho.

dz is one activity that Nigerians don't embrace and they don't know how beneficial it is to their health.

am a 10x donor and I have no regrets

Sure I will not embrace it.. why should I give my blood for free and patients pay for the same blood I gave for free.. it should be free for free

serialkilla:

Praying that before the year runs out I can jet out of this country too.

Why are u guys running away, we can make a difference in this nation, the place u guys are running to once upon a time was in our level, if their fore fathers didn't stand and make the change happen where will u guys be jetting to now...


All hope is not lost, Nigeria is a great nation with great prospect of improvement, we just need to stand and fight the nation to a better position instead of running to where people have already made better

hmm
Always go for pvc test sha before your good intent turn to your downfall

If you're not buying my blood, I'm not donating.
I donated blood twice for free and had all the blood donor card yadayada till my uncle got sick in 2011 and we had to buy blood every single time.
Unfortunately, the old man died.
Fvck me if I enter any hospital to donate blood again.

Thomthom:

If you don't donate, it is still the patients that will suffer.

It will get more expensive or not even available at all for the patients to buy.

Yes, she needs a particular injection before or immediately after the first born if her husband is a positive rhesus but not necessary if they are both negative

O! Is it the rhesus factor thing? Didnt know that was what she was referring to

Its not perculiar to just O-, Other groups with negative rhesus take the injection too.

I think those with positive rhesus take it too if their partner's rhesus is negative.

Lovelyn451:

No, the +rhesus don't need it even if the husband is -rhesus.

Person never chop, you expect him to come and donate the blood he's just managing

maybe he went to a private hospital, well at Aminu Kano Teaching hospital, my bro had 5pams of blood after surgery and we paid 25k, infact the doctor made it clear to us that we're only paying for screening and not for the blood and that's 5k for each

Jasen1:
