Donated 11 times, wanted to move over to donating platelets but my count isn't above average. It's easy enough Michael and my only advice is to drink plenty of water.

Husband tries to donate, but last time he found a convenient collection, he came down with a stinking cold, so had to stay away! At this rate, it'll be another 5 years before he manages to donate what I've received (7 units, in total).
