A member asked:
Can you tell me how it feel like to donate plasma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Needle stick and: may be dizziness. Donating plasma involves having a needle inserted into your vein, you are hooked to a machine that separates cells from plasma and returns the cells to you and keeps the plasma. You will lose some blood volume so be sure to drink enough water before the donation to avoid symptoms due to low blood volume.
