Alas, I am one of those to whom the ultimate gift of giving blood is forever denied. Many years ago, I took a blood medication for fast heartrate. It was a "beta blocker" I believe. Sometime after taking it, which I did for only 6 months, I tried to give blood. In the interview process, the name of the product that I used was on their "forever forbidden" list. Prior to that I was a pretty faithful blood donor. It still bothers me that I am not able to do this. Sigh.
