Hey Fellas,

As the title says, tomorrow I have an appointment to give some blood to try and bring down my hemoglobin (and/or blood pressure I guess). Tomorrow is also pin day for test and NPP. I just realized giving the blood may change my blood levels. Should I pin before (in the morning as usual) or after (in the afternoon) I give blood? It may not make a difference, I don't know, but I was leaning towards pinning after.

Any thoughts from the vets or anybody with experiance giving blood while on cycle?

Much appreciated.

I've thought about this before too and to be honest i don't think it'll make much difference but I'd pin after just for peace of mind.

Every time I get same crap labs on the same day luck of the draw I guess .....
