Am o neg. Have given blood in the past but I pass out any time blood is drawn, even small amounts for testing. Donation techs told me multiple times to just stop coming. I keep my blood now. I tried, but I won’t put myself or the techs through that again. I warn phlebs at the doctor’s office what is going to happen, most listen, but every now and then I get to really scare someone.
I’m curious, do you have a conditionor is it just some unexplainable pass out? Asking cause I can relate to some extent, even though I’m ok with normal amounts for blood tests.
No known condition, just lights out when blood is drawn by a professional. Doesn’t happen if i spring a leak on accident. Just triggers my nope switch I guess.

Vasovagal syncope, likely.
What did you call me? I’ll have you know I know right where my towel is.
