I dontated plasma 12 times.

They put in 2 needles, one into each arm; one leads to a machine, and
the other drips the red cells back into your body. It takes about 2
hours.

It's used for cancer and burn patients.

I always felt low and weird for about 3 days afterward.

Sometimes they had the needle in a position that kept sticking the
inside of my artery, causing a stinging pain.

I always hoped they were honest and liked me, not using someone elses
needles and tubes over again.
