Plasma started out like a good idea. I have been two times since Saturday. Both times, my pulse was too high. They only give you one chance. I don't know why I get nervous about this. I made it through the first time okay.
Update: I went about 4 times before I gave up. I will go back agian, but my body needed a break. Not to mention, I was right in the middle of our busy season at work. Everytime I had my pressure/pulse checked, it would spike. I might ask to have the nurse do it like the first visit. I hope I can give again. It was not a bad experience. I have even gone to the doctors for a yearly visit and my pressure and pulse was acceptable. If not, he would have let me know.
This is an update.
I went about two weeks ago. After getting my fingerprints done, I decided to drop in. It has been about two or three months. After signing in, I waited for the checks. My name is called and I go into the booth. Here I am sitting and having some chit chat. I go, "Well the last couple of times, my pulse was too high." The machine beeps and guess what. . .Denied. I don't know why? I can sit through giving blood with no problem. If I go back, I will see if a nurse can do it in the first room I was checked into.
