Went for blood donation at Blk 16 yesterday during the 3 hour break. I was super excited on the way there and while waiting for my turn. But.....in the end....I cant donate blood..... Due to my low HB and low blood pressure.... OMG!!
The doctor said that there are 3 main causes for low HB. Diet,Vegetarian and Menses. I think it's very true cause i fulfilled 2 out of the 3 causes. But Im not going to start eating beef and pig liver because of that. It sucks.
Mum cooked red bean soup and pork porridge with the liver when she heard that Im low in Iron. The red bean soup is very nice and it has fine multi grains in it!! It has a good source of Dietary fibre, Protein, Iron and Carotene!! But for the pork porridge, it is nice too.....except for the liver. I try to eat a small piece but spit it out in the end. =P
The doctor also gave me Ferrous fumarate. I had a hard time swallowing it cus I dunno how to swallow pills. Although the size of the pills is slightly smaller than Panadol, I still need 2 cups of water before I can swallow a pill. Not going to eat it anymore. I think it also increase my appetite sia....
Feeling a little disappointed....Haiz..... next time when going for manicure, I will be going to the HSA Blood Bank at Outram to donate my blood since its on the way =)
