I thought you couldn't give blood if you were taking various medicines

I used to give blood but was told I couldn't as soon as I started taking my various medications.

Yes this is true but family and friends may want to give blood as there is a national shortage.

I gave blood all my working life until dianosed with WG, but my family still donate blood.

all the best
