Meh, that's not so bad. They did 8 with me. And I was only 12 at the time, so I didn't have all that much blood.

I remember being hospitalized, and they couldn't draw blood from my arm bc of the viens, so they tried drawing blood from the viens in my hand, talk about ouch.

Its always a good thing when they give you two bags worth of blood. thats nice feeling.

But i feel your pain when they drew blood, some people don't have a gentle touch with the needle while others do.

It felt really odd when I was selling plasma to make ends meet and they were pumping the red blood cells and saline back into me. Getting paid $40 in a week to go in and lay down and watch a movie for an hour or so wasn't too shabby, though.
