Can you give blood if you have anemia? My doctor thinks I either have that or this really rare rapid heart rate disease. I went to get my blood tested, but they haven't called me about the results yet, so I'm not sure if I'm really anemic. Either way, I have an EXTREMELY rapid heart rate -- at rest, it's around 96 beats per minute. But my school is having a blood drive next week and if you do it, you get these really nice flannel pants. I really want the pants!
Are any of you guys anemic? Know anyone who is? Can they give blood? |

I used to be anemic and I couldn't give blood. They usually don't want to give blood with low iron levels to someone who's sick. I wasn't horribly anemic, either.
There was a point when I was younger that I had to get my blood taken every 3 months, because they wanted to keep tabs on my anemia. Anemia's actually a lot more common than it should be. |
