Can I donate blood if I have smoked marijuana in the past 2 months?!


Question: Can I donate blood if I have smoked marijuana in the past 2 months?
It's probably out of my system by now, right? Just wondering because I don't want to give, like, contaminated blood or something. Also, I head that when you donate the people ask when you last smoked... are they going to tell anyone? Even my parents? Thanks.

Answers:

First off, they don't do any tests to find out, the only thing they test is your iron, blood pressure, and heart rate. I've also looked this up on their site. They don't care if you smoke weed or not, they just perfer you don't smoke right before you go to donate. Also i've never been asked once about pot usage when i've donated, not by the nurse, or on the comuter.

EDIT: Don't listen to dumbasses above.
