I went to the doctors today. Got a blood form and she's ticked TFT (thyroid function) with carbamezapine :confused: I'm not taking carba and really don't want to. Its what they give to manic depressives. She looked at my notes and said I haven't had some bloods done for a while so she wants some done.
I also seem to have shrunk by an inch to 5"5 :eek: I feel so small now.
Haven't done anything else with my day. Had to go to tesco to do some shopping. Mum is walking with a limp because of her leg. I'm so tired I can't even move. I'm going to have some tea then go for a shower if I can find the energy. So much for lucozade being an energy booster. Its done nothing.

I'm not sure but this website has all the info on it http://www.blood.co.uk/
When I'm older I'm considering joining the bone marrow donor register but I'm still unsure..
Well done on your work I should check what work I have to do havn't even looked :p

You have to be 17 and a healthy weight. You can only give blood three times a year. There are loads of other requirements to fill before you can donate.
You can go to the national blood bank website to sign up.
-
So I cant sign up now, even thought im 16? Cos I was wondering whether I could sign up just for future reference and information.
-
No, you will have to wait until you are 17. You can sign up at anytime to donate your organs as long as you are over 14 (I think).
-
:eek: Hang on, I have to wait till im 17 to sign up to donate blood, yet for oragns its 14!
-
Yup. No idea why. I've been on the organ register for several years but I can't donate blood because I take medication.
I think the only conditions that disqualify you from donating organs are HIV and Hepatitis.
