Wow neilio! Quite right to feel proud! Why the rules in NZ about the UK in the 80's & 90's? |

Wow Neilio! That’s amazing. I’ve wondered about donating platelets before. Can you sign up to do that instead or as well so that donations can be more regular?

You have to be quite heavy or very tall as a female to give platelets, something to do with blood volume. There’s a table somewhere on their website. (I’m 5’2”, BMI about 25, and I don’t qualify )

Well done Neilio! I'm well inside the qualification zone for platelets then Fizz. I'm hoping for discussions when I go in a couple of weeks. |
