Mar 29, 2015 at 7:34 comment added alexcd found on internet: After blood donation, it generally takes a day or two to replenish the fluid volume in the body and three months for the regeneration of red cells to donate more blood. The total amount of blood circulating in our body's cardiovascular system is about 5 liters. Of this amount, only about 350 ml. is bled from the body during blood donation. The human body replenishes this amount of blood donated within about 48 to 72 hours of donation.

Mar 27, 2015 at 9:12 comment added Jayachandran @Chris: I haven't concluded that doctors hide the risks, I rather inquired about it. Yes I have donated blood.
Mar 27, 2015 at 9:12 comment added fileunderwater @chris The poster was encouraged to remove all personal details, so the part saying that he/she is a donor has been removed (see edit history). The last sentence on ethics is secondary to the question though, and I thought about removing it.
Mar 27, 2015 at 9:07 comment added Chris How do you come to the conclusion that doctors hide risks from donors? Have you ever donated blood?
Mar 27, 2015 at 9:05 comment added Jayachandran @fileunderwater: Thank you, now it looks like a question !
Mar 27, 2015 at 9:04 comment added fileunderwater Tried to clarify your question. Feel free to roll-back if you disagree.
Mar 27, 2015 at 9:03 comment added Jayachandran @Chris: Yes thats what I am looking for !

Mar 27, 2015 at 8:58 comment added Chris I don't understand your question. Do you want to know if blood donations are harmful for the donor?

Mar 27, 2015 at 7:45 comment added canadianer If this is not a personal medical question, you should remove all references to yourself. Also, medical ethics specifically prohibits hiding information from patients.
