How do you think - from donating blood. One time doing so is how I first realized I had high bp years back - they took my bp before and surprise, they wouldn't let me donate that time. You can donate as often as once every 3 mos, but I seldom manage that. giveblood.org Hint: psbc.org

I knew about it, as I've donated blood many times. I didn't know that having sex with another man would have disqualified me, since I always answered truthfully, "no". I thought it meant I'd be tested for STD's or go into another question panel or something. Also, visiting certain countries and receiving blood there disqualifies, as do some other things. So, how does Bruce KNOW that answering "yes" to gay male sex disqualifies a person? Inquiring minds want to know..
