Answers:
"I have diabetes, can I donate blood or bone marrow!?" This is an excellent question, and is frequently asked by Canadians with diabetes who wish to give blood!.

If you take insulin, you are not eligible to donate!. The rationale is that donating blood could interrupt your blood glucose control, and potentially lead to a hypoglycemic reaction in the clinic or on the way home!.

If you manage your diabetes with lifestyle or diabetes pills, you may be eligible, depending on your overall health and if you meet the requirements listed below!. Many people who have type 2 diabetes have blood pressure and heart problems, which would prevent them from donating!.

Canadian Blood Services divides willing donors into 3 categories: those who can donate right away, those who can donate after a waiting period and those who cannot donate!. Some criteria for each category are listed below!. These rules are in place to protect both the donor and to ensure the safety of the Canadian blood supply!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
