If you have a thyroid autoimmune condition some online research suggests that you may or may not be able to give blood. According to the American Red Cross, the general rule is that if you're taking medication for maintenance of Hashitmoto's thyroiditis or Graves' disease then you can give blood. The Red Cross does advise to ask your doctor's opinion before giving blood, though.
If you have any questions about donating blood contact your local Red Cross chapter, or whomever is conducting the blood drive, to discuss their guidelines.
