Been to the blood bank yesterday to donate blood. Quick test showed I could not donate this time. Iron was at 134 but must be 135 or above to donate. It's probably due to surgery I had last month, and now i've been advised to wait 6 months. Somehow It makes me feel a bit sad and guilty.

In the US, you are still able to donate plasma so you can keep the iron contained in the red blood cells in your body
