I completed my 28th blood donation today. It started off smoothly - then decided to slow down, several of the blood team commented that I needed to squeeze my hand harder, so I SQUEEZED harder & faster. After what seemed like an eternity they had collected enough of the red stuff.
So they deflated the blood pressure cuff, removed the needle and gave me a cotton ball to put over the hole and apply pressure to for a few minutes. And then every time they came to remove the cotton ball and apply a plaster I continued to bleed - this went on for about 15 minutes !!
It stopped in the end - but that must have been the longest time I have ever spent donating blood.
