air bubbles
09/09 I believe. Second time I had a blown donation due to bubbles in tubing shutting down the machine. They did'nt come from me. What actually finished the process was clots forming in the tubing. The second time the process was about half way complete, so I lost an amount of whole blood, and they had to treat it as a donation of whole blood. For whatever reason I have been put on a 60 day suspension of donating,( Nov. 14.) Usually a donation of whole blood can be done every 30 days, so I don't get why 2 months. They assured me I did nothing to cause it, but no further explanation. At this point I don't know if I will go back or not. D. Johnson
