Even for loss of blood if wounded! Barbers used to do it and to advertise that they did they put up the now common red and white pole...but if your barber starts cutting on your veins, get a new barber (if you want to see a real good and scary movie about 18th century barbers in London, check out "Sweeny Todd" with Ben Kingsley!). |

Title: Re: This may sound funny......... Post by Guiseppi on Aug 18th, 2006, 8:16pm I'm a regular blood giver in and out of cycle. (One of the advantages of lithium is that it doesn't preclude blood donations) It hasn't seemed to affect me either positvely or negatively. But then as my wife constantly reminds me, there isn't a damned thing about me that has ever been normal. I'm sending my leeches to MJ! Guiseppi |

Title: Re: This may sound funny......... Post by Margi on Aug 18th, 2006, 8:29pm ::) boys. no, redirection of blood is NOT the same as depletion. But ... LOL Back to the point: it does make sense that lowering blood pressure would help a bit. |

Title: Re: This may sound funny......... Post by brewcrew on Aug 18th, 2006, 8:45pm But it only lowers your blood pressure for a short time. Within hours your pressure is back up to your normal level. I just don't see how lowering your blood pressure for a few hours would completely end a cycle. Maybe there's some other mechanism at work. |
