    I don't use steroids, no. I'm just saying what the nurse told me when I tried to give blood, oh so many years ago. If it's true that I can give blood, great. I always felt bad I couldn't. Back then I wasn't even using abuterol, just theopholin and Primetine.

      There is no reason why an asthmatic can't donate blood. The amount removed isn't enough to impair your blood's ability to carry Oxygen, so it can't hurt the donor. Since most blood is used to make packed red blood cells there isn't enough antibody in the blood product to affect the recipient, the globulin containing plasma is centrifuged off in the making of pRBCs.

        I generally have been perusing this forum with the "PM" function turned off. In this case I've turned it on. Che: send your address to my "PM" and I'll send you some money.

        Oops! I didn't see your reply to Groucho, so I won't expect you to contact me.

            Che, I'd spot ya if it weren't for the fact that I recieved a letter from Texas A&M Student Financial Services today informing me that if I do not pay them now, a Intergalactic Bounty Hunter would be sent to chop off my left testicle.

            Well, not in so many words, but you get the idea.

              Thanks for the kind thoughts, Lonestar.

                For me, I have to be really careful. If I make too much money with a job, I'll lose the unemployment but take home less because of taxes.
                god forbid you have a real job and work your way off unemployment

                seriously though, are you incapable of holding a job? anything medical or the like?

                tough suitation though. i'd float you some money but i'm in college, and you probably know how that goes... scrounging money for pizza and stuff.

                  Glad you're able to pay the rent, at least for now. and I hope your situation improves.

                    It gets better and then it gets worse. From 1988 to 1997 my income more than doubled and now I am making what I made in 1988 again.

                    I am writing a first novel which I am beginning to truely expect to finish. Odds on publication for first time novelists are something like 100,000 to 1 and if published first novels normally make about 8k.

                    Ack.

                      So I got your message. We'll be expecting a blood payment from you forthwith.

                        Good luck with that. Maybe the SMEs over there in the States are more generous with advertising money. Here, a friend of mine tried that and didn't get anywhere.
