Am I the only B+ here?

I have absolutely no idea. :wave:

I too have absolutely no idea what my blood type is. I would like to know though.

No, I'm a B positive too.:)

Why do you ask? Do you need a donor?

I asked because I was wondering if there were any people here with rare ones, and also to see if anyone else had mine.

Oh. [Unhooks syringe.]

My blood type is 0 positive. I found this out when I donated blood to the Red Cross. Type 0 is the most common, but it's also the most in demand.
According to a pamphlet I got in the mail, 0 positive can be transfused to more than 85% of the population (0 positive, 0 negative, B positive, B negative and AB positive).

0 negative blood types can be transfused to anyone, any blood type.

Also according to the Red Cross, donating blood saves up to 3 lives. And, only 3% of people who qualify to donate do so. That's why I am going to set up another appointment to donate for next Monday at a local church.

A positive.

I was told that my blood dype was somewhat rare..Mine is A-

My mom's A negative and My dad's A positive so I know I have to be A, but I'm not sure if I'm positive or negitive.

Don't know. I've always wondered though.

Funny you should ask, I just gave blood today. I'm B positive.

Yaay! I'm not the only B positive!

it's the red kind

I have no idea. I've never given blood and I've never asked what my blood type is. I really should probably find that out in case something would happen to me!

Wow Fleet, something else we have in common! :eek:

I'm an O+ but I can't donate blood anymore :( I've lived overseas for more than a year and am anemic. Stinks.

Mine is AB positive. My blood is pretty cool.

My mother's is AB positive. I get the B positive from my maternal grandmother.

I have absolutely no clue what my blood type is, but I've always wondered. I've always meant to ask during a blood test, but I get so freaked out that I forget to. There's a red cross blood drive coming up soon (and since I'm now 17), I can donate. So, I'll have to ask them what I am.

Anemic? What type of anemia do you have? (Aplastic, Folic-acid deficiency, Hemolytic, Iron deficiency or Pernicious [B-12 deficiency]?)
Most types are curable, or at least treatable.

O neg

My previous employer every six months had a bus come in for donors, I gave 8 times in 4 years. I have only 1 in the last 2 years since leaving, in Canada there is not any drop ins you have to book in advance. Things just seem to slip and I forget but this post reminded me and will be booking a appt for next week.

It is a great gift especially if you ever have someone close to you who ever needs blood, shows you how important giving is.

Thanks for the reminder guys
Cheers

O pos

I don't remember. O something, I think. I've donated blood 4 times...they told me I have something in my blood and I save babies. I got a magnet. yep.

I have absolutely no idea. :wave:
ditto!

O negative. I am also a registed bone marrow donor. I donate every 53 days or so. At work we have a blood drive every quarter.

O+

I have no idea. I've never donated blood before and I've never asked either. I'm sure I was told at one time, but I just forgot. Next time I'll ask at the dr.

Wow good for you, bone marrow donation from what I have heard is pretty painful. Not something I have mustered up the courage to do, what made you do it? A friends family are all donors because one of the youngest kids was fighting leukemia (5 years in remission thanks to marrow donors).

My best friend had Non-Hodgekins Lymphoma. She went thru all the rounds of chemo and such. Finally they treated her white blood cells and replanted them in her. She has been cancer free for 7 years now. On the 5th anniversary of her remission, I decided to register. The actual registration itself is painless. When you give blood they simply take an extra vial of blood. That's it. If I can save another life, then I can stand the pain. I went thru labor and eventually a C-Section, so I figure that can't be much worse.... LOL!!

B negative, when sucks when im pregnant
