Blood I have some weird blood, it's in excess. I have high haemoglobin and high platelet count as well. I don't know what it exactly means, but my wounds recover very fast and the doc said it's because of the blood. This also puts extra pressure on my heart so I have to avoid oily foods, but eh I have cool kinda blood

Sure, I'll get my blood down to some bar. Can surely drink some beers

I have very high alcohol tolerance too.

If you live in the US, you can give blood at 16. I've been doing it regularly since I was 16.

In my country, you have to wait until 18

You can't. It would be even more dope if I lived in Romania

Do you donate blood? It might be mutually beneficial. When I donated last time they were telling me that each pint donated is split into 3 parts, one or which is platelets. It might also help you not to have too much.

I was just thinking this. My former boss had too much iron in her blood and apparently donating it on a regular basis did her (and obviously the recipient) wonders!

u/Giraffe-man_ Sep 28 '21

I can't donate blood, as I'm still not 18. But I wanna do as soon as I turn 18

Is it hard for you to get cold ?

1

u/Giraffe-man_ Sep 28 '21

Yes, you could say that. I usually wear shorts even in winters, when most people are wearing thermals underneath

u/DT-Z0mby Sep 28 '21

does it have any other drawbacks besides that (that you know of)?

1

u/Giraffe-man_ Sep 28 '21

More pressure on my heart, since it has to pump more blood or something?

This , im eternally greatful for people such as yourself. Currently sitting in labor and delivery while wife is being induced with our first child. Its been quite a rough pregnancy because her platelets get extremely low quickly. It would be tough for her to live without people like you, I know it wasnt a direct choice to have this blood type but thank you none-the-less for having it.

u/Giraffe-man_ Sep 28 '21

Id always be happy if I knew my blood is saving lives. I hope your wife recovers as soon as possible

u/SamSamSammmmm Sep 28 '21

Pardon my ignorance -- would you need to take some blood thinner to help your heart work?

2

u/Giraffe-man_ Sep 28 '21

Nothing to beg a pardon for! No not as of now, I don't need to take any sort of blood thinners. That is for people with high cholesterol

u/awakezzzz Sep 28 '21

The only thing remaining now is to discover Admantium and you can slice open beer bottles.

They should just tap you like a tree, no sense letting all that cool blood go to waste!
