Do they post such things on the web? I have not given in a while but if my old data is out there some place it would be interesting to see.

Oklahoma Blood Institute does...it's independent from the Red Cross. They have their own testing facilities right on the premises. After 9/11, when everyone was donating blood, they were able to get the blood right to New York, right away...Here's the
story.Steve donated right away, after 9/11...I waited and donated a month later to make up for any dip in the supply from so many people donating at once after 9/11.
I like to donate, but just never "got around to it" for a long time. But now, what with our troops needing blood and such...it's probably best to help keep the supplies up. And OBI does the cholesterol testing and that's a plus for me...gives me an idea of how I'm doing.
