Had a lightheadness / low blood pressure episode after donating double platelets. Ended up needist to rest and eat salty pretzels and a cheese stick and take in liquids before I was allowed to leave the blood center. This is the first time it happens to me and I have been donating for several years. I hope it is a one time occurrence and not the beginning of a bad trend.

Came home tired but made myself do the 2nd brushing and now feel much better for it! My mouth feels refreshed and psychologically I feel better because I actually accomplished what I had set out to do.
