I did try to donate years ago, but was told I couldn't because I was anaemic at the time. Also I seem to remember that if you have had some diseases, like glandular fever, you can't donate. Lettie - where can I get a list of proscribed diseases? Only op I have had in the last 10 years is a cataract, so that shouldn't count, as no blood is involved. I do know my group - AB+ - one of the lucky ones, because as Lettie will know, I am the universal recipient, I can take anything! I only have a couple of years to go before age bars me, so I should get a move on.
