My hemoglobin was globinning below the max level today, so I can donate platelets again. And eat snacks. Not sure what was going on last week, but it was a first.

100 blood donations done. (Mostly platelet donations) I started donating back in 2020 because the Red Cross would test your blood for Covid antibodies, and I, at the time, was curious if I'd ever had it as I never had any symptoms. I kinda got hooked, and now I donate regularly. And because I'm a nerd, I track it all in an LibreOffice Sheet. :) #blood #platelets

Donated 3 units of platelets today at Stanford's Blood Center. They are probably already on their way to a human who needs them over the next day or two.
Usually it's 2 units unless they have a need. The 3rd unit adds about 20-30 min overall to the collection time.
Donate if you can. #blooddonation #donateblood #platelets

Research has proven frozen #blood #platelets are safe and effective to use on critically injured patients – a breakthrough dramatically extending their shelf life for transfusions from one week to two years.

Donated #platelets today for the first time in a while. I used to do this more often, but my doctor was worried about my iron levels, so I had to go down to doing this once a quarter.
It's also kinda wild to watch the counter increase by hundreds of billions.

I donated about 2 hours and gave 2 units of #platelets out of my blood yesterday during a routine #blooddonation at #standordbloodcenter again. It was my 230th all time donation and 9th donation of the year.
Started to read _The Flipside_ by Michelle "Mace" Curran. She was an Air Force F16 and Thunderbird pilot (the PR/demo team). Fascinating read - she overcame a ton of crap.

as usual, I don't have time to do any real reading or thinking, but
hypocapnia is a common finding in POTS and ME/CFS , and when I was looking on Bluesky to see if someone had already posted about this article, a post on this one came up -Carbon dioxide alleviates platelet storage lesions via stimulating fatty acid metabolism and reducing platelet glucose consumption

I donated platelets again yesterday. I remain in a four week rotation. Lifetime donation number 223.
My blood is normal AFAIK. Stories like this Australian donor who recently passed show the absolute nobility of being able to save a life. Or a couple million lives. With just a blood donation. It's not hard.

According to the website, today was going to be my 200th successful donation (out of 201 tries). According to their computers, this is only donation 199. Bummer. Next time.

Question to anyone familar with #TransHealthcare #Hematology
Is there a relationship between elevated #WBC (#neutrophils, #lymphocytes, #monocytes) & #Platelets, decreased #RBC, #Hemocrit, #Anemia, #Hgb, #mpv and #HRT for male to female #transgender individuals with no other evidence of blood disease, infection or #cancer?
#CTScans are clean, #BoneMarrowBiopsy clean. Doc wants to repeat however.
