leisurely Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 What a fabulous idea. Have registered and will ask husband if he will too. I am sure he will. This really should be more publicised and I will do my best to make sure it is. Shouldn't it be on the BKK forum too or have I just not seen it?

AndyWeysham Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I was looking forward to donating blood as my finace' does it regularly as way of making merit. Unfortunately since I work in Afica they will not take it even if tested. anyone know this to be a fact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 It is true. I think it is if you have worked in africa for a month or over. Although i think you can give blood again after a year. You also cannot give blood within one year of having a tattoo or a piercing. This is due to the chances of carrying hep. C. I wont be able to give blood for another 8 years because at 24 i have carried the glandular fever virus for 2 years. I hope this helps!! Im a biology lab tech here in grey england, so i have to know this kind of stuff!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanocasey Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 After checking this site for updates there are only 24 people signed up to give blood.

jdinasia Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 As a side note ... the rules for donating blood in Dallas or in the UK are different than here.

groo Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 i have added myself on the list. i think this link should be promoted. we have several thousands of active users within thailand and this list could be very very beneficial. hope the moderators or owners of this forum would put up a banner on the forum site. instead of just commercial advertisements on sponsors etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guardian Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I too have added myself to the list. I just chanced upon this thread almost by accident. If I had just logged in and saw a few pages and then logged off, I surely would never have seen this thread. It would be a good idea to send a mass PM to all members, even to the 33 already registered at this moment and I'm sure there will be many more members enlisting soon who might be unaware of this thread as they might be visiting only a particular sub-section and not all the sections of the forum. And the next thing is to add a permanent link on the top along with: "Send SMS" "Advertise" "Expat Insurance" "Blogs" "Live Chat" "Gallery" "Help" "Search" "Member" Guardian.

leisurely Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Well said SeanOcasey. I have said it time and againl, it is a marvellous idea that people can be called up in an emergency. Why haven't more people signed up? I am sure they would be looking for help if they needed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guardian Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Everyone needs to make some money. TV has added a new link to "Book Shop", but no link to something which could be life saving like putting a "Blood Needed" link on the top column. And, just like the "xx new messages" showing in the top portion, there can be a similar alert when someone needs blood so that everyone does not have to click and see often whether blood is needed or not.

TallTravel Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Does anyone know if the Red Cross in BKK does apheresis or plasma donation as well? Or just whole blood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeetaboat Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Does anyone know if the Red Cross in BKK does apheresis or plasma donation as well? Or just whole blood? Blood question - I am O neg and am pregnant. My husband is O positive so we have possible RH incompatibility between myself and the baby (common complication for O neg mothers, easily treatable with 2 blood transfusions). I will give birth in Thailand, but need a treatment of Immunoglobin at 28 weeks, and again after birth. Because most people are O+, this is a very uncommon problem in Thailand and the immunoglobin is not something most hospitals keep in stock. I'm currently trying to find a source of this immunoglobin stuff. I've got about 12 weeks to find some. Anyone got any ideas or come up against this problem?

I was a regular blood and apheresis donor back in the uk. Where can i continue to do this in Chiang Mai ? It is a the Red Cross Clinic, just near to the Warorot Markets opposite the Police Sation and Post Office, on the road that parallels the Mae Ping. Having a mind blank on the road name. If you can't find it send me a PM and I will try to sort it out. I donate whole blood and then transferred of the aphersis section in Australia. We had the Red Cross out at work and did a donation a few months ago - they come out every three months and set up for the day doing people in batches so I don't go into town and do it there.

kayaker Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 have been given blood for years in the U.K. came here and was very publicly (?) while I was lying down ready for the bag and needle told that psoriasis excludes you from giving blood. Tried to explain this was ridiculous but they insisted that it's contagious and would be passed on. Never heard such nonsense!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backflip Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 "Does anyone know if the Red Cross in BKK does apheresis or plasma donation as well? " Indeed they do. I've made apheresis donations there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
