Gooo me, it was a pretty good experience because i got a person that was actually a trained hurse and not a volunteer. After she took the needle out i started to feel woosy and light headed and everything started sounding funny so she put my head down and elevated my feet and i was all better. She let me hold my blood after! It was so cool and didn't hurt as bad as i thought it would, i barely felt it. You guys should try and give blood if you weight over 110 and are at least 17.

I tried but didn't have enough iron to do it. Did it look like they took a LOT of blood?

I did it once, and will never do it again. The woman who took mine had no idea what she was doing. I don't think she actually got the needle in my vein. I think she just went straight through it. I barely bled any, and after ten minutes told her to get the needle out of my arm.
Not only that, but I about had a panic attack. I had a friend give a double donation in the time it took me to fill an 8th of the bag.

with small veins if you have a higher concentration of blood cells to plasma then your veins could easily become congested with all the blood cells i guess so yeah it matters lol or maybe the needle was just too big
