wireless	Posted Hi all. Apparently this company will pay $200 for a plasma donation if you have certain illnesses like Lyme disease, RA, allergies, and a bunch more. . I think you have to be on certain medications to qualify. Supposely they will pay you $200 every time and you can do 2 donations a week. Call 888-806-5215. http://www.seracare.com/donors/blood_donors.htm

Sunflower Power	Posted Hide Post I donated blood once before I got diagnosed. It occurred to me that it might be bad idea because donating blood causes dizziness and I had major dizziness. Well, it WAS a bad idea. But I'm glad I did it at least once in my life. I felt pretty bad but i was still able to function and I felt back to normal by the next day.

wireless	Posted Hide Post Well I need the money So I hope I qualify, but think it's unlikely I will. I like the idea of helping their research anyway. This place supposedly gives you 500ml of saline to help you feel fine afterwards. Normally a person's body regenerates the plasma in 24 hours.
