I have been diabetic for several years and I have done the double red donation for Hoxworth. When I asked they said as long as you never had insulin from pork or beef products and your iron is high enough that you can donate the red cells. The blood sugar (glucose) is in the plasma not the red cells, and even so, they let diabetics donate whole blood products.
The minimum hemoglobin level to donate double red blood cells is typically 13.5 g/dL for males and 12.5 g/dL for females. This ensures that the donor has enough hemoglobin to safely donate a larger volume of red blood cells.
Yes, O positive can donate red blood cells to AB negative. O positive is a universal donor for red blood cells, meaning it can be transfused to individuals with any blood type. However, O positive donors are not universal plasma donors for AB negative recipients.
You can donate stem cells for medical research, however they are less useful than that of the afterbirth of infants. Stem cells are blank cells which are used in the production of specialized cells in the body.
A ab Blood Group A+ve patient can receive donors of Group: A +ve . A-ve . O+ve And O -ve , and patient with blood group A -ve and can only receive A-ve and O -ve, in terms of Packed red cells ( Red blood cells) is required .
Although you donate all of your blood components, only the red cells are given to someone who doesn't have your exact blood type. B type whole blood will only be given to B. An AB recipient will only get red cells and no plasma so the antibodies in the plasma can not attack the antigens on the red blood cell surface.
The minimum hemoglobin level to donate double red blood cells is typically 13.5 g/dL for males and 12.5 g/dL for females. This ensures that the donor has enough hemoglobin to safely donate a larger volume of red blood cells.
No. Donors must have no chronic medical problems.
The four different types of blood are: A, B, AB, and O. When you donate blood, or have blood drawn, at the hospital, they will tell you which type you have,and usually give you a card to identify your blood type on your identification.
Yes, O positive can donate red blood cells to AB negative. O positive is a universal donor for red blood cells, meaning it can be transfused to individuals with any blood type. However, O positive donors are not universal plasma donors for AB negative recipients.
No, you see, the body will renew its blood cells as the blood cells get older or used up. That is why people can donate their blood to the Red Cross. The body makes new blood cells to replace them.
Donations can be taken to local red cross offices and donate from there or do so online.
According to both the American and UK diabetics associations Metformin does not prohibit the user from donating blood.

Donate money to companies.
Yes
I am a red cross, and my fellow red cross that you're referring to said that he didn't donate any money for hurricane Katrina. My red cross buddy doesn't lie.
