Question: Does the blood bank take a smaller volume of blood if you are only donating platelets....?
or red blood cells as opposed to whole blood.? I get light headed when donating blood so I wanted to know if there was a way to donate a smaller amount.


also, if you know something I could do to so I wouldn't feel lightheaded when giving blood that would help too. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Its not unusual to feel a bit woozy after giving blood. Make sure that you eat a good meal before you go and always take the snack that they offer after you donate.
They take the same amount, no matter what. Health Question & Answer
