i donated blood for the first time in my whole entire life yesterday.. its such a great experience.. aft queueing for such a super long time, its finally my turn to donate blood.. im the first person to donate in my group, thus i was actually quite nervous.. when i was sitting on the bed, i can feel all my nerves getting so tense.. the nurse came over and help me to find the most protruding vein, which she took a long time.. den she apply the alcohol for sterilisation and its time for the anaes.. haha lucky the needle was..quite fine and thus not much pain.. the worst ting is that she lost my vein and had trouble poking the transfusion needle in my arm.. okay i noe my veins are stubborn.. after bout 10 minutes and with the help of the chief nurse, my blood started flowing.. but the rate was super slow.. i tink maybe bout 2-3 drops per sec.. i took a super long time to finish bout 1 bag which is bout 300cc.. den guess wat, we are supposed to collect 4 tubes of blood for checking, and my blood wouldn't flow.. guess the vein sealed up.. in the end, the nurse allocated me to another bed with a packet of ice on the wound.. haha.. in the end i was the last to finsh the whole procedure.. maybe cos of my stubborn vein, there are bruises which are quite gross and big around the area.. i cannot use to much strength on my arm as it will arch later.. now hav to rest my arm like after every homework.. haha!! Up, up, and away! |
