Blood donation for high hematocrit

Exactly. I’ve been tempted by the convenience before but I’m fearful I’d randomly faint and then you’re totally fucked because at that point you’re totally bleeding out. Flatline. Dead.

I know that can be prevented by buying a pint bag to fill, but I could see someone neglecting that and going the water bottle or solo cup technique.

I tired to do it once in my bathtub and I pinched a vein or something because I almost blacked out and felt incredibly sick for like 3 minutes and thought I was going to die.
