Give 'til it hurts
‘the return" portion "blew out" as the nurse described it. Actually it did not hurt much and I will do it again.
When the machine decided to return my blood to my vein my vein said, I can’t take that, and blew up to the size of a hot dog.
The nice nurse said, you are going to have a big, big bruise. It is will be OK.
She was right.. It did not hurt at all. Well, not much.
Go give blood.
It is free and it saves lives.
{edit in 1/6/10} I think I inadvertently caused this as I review things in hindsight. How I think this happened – this machine takes whole blood out of your arm, like any normal donation does. The machine then removes a specific blood component like platelets, whatever they need, and then returns everything else back to your vein. Therefore you can donate more frequently.
This was the first time I did this and I think I misunderstood the instructions. I asked if I should squeeze the foam rubber football every 5 seconds like in a normal whole blood donation and the nurse said, "No, only if the machine beeps which means the flow is low. It will give a different beep when the return of blood starts, so don’t squeeze then." I think I squeezed on the wrong beep, when the return started and thereby constricted my vein and impeded the return blood flow. And my vein blow up like a balloon and blood squirted out into my arm under the skin.

Received this pen during my recent blood donation, I’m not really a frequent donor, so this year, I will try my very best to donate blood more often when I can. Hope you do too.. it’s not really that painful.. trust the needle =)
