Will it be ok to give plasma if you have two hip replacements, and take humera for arthritis once a week?

Varies: Having a previous hip replacement is definitely not a contraindication to plasma donation. The humerus is a different issue as it is an immunosuppressant and you would want to discuss directly with your doctor about whether or not it was ok to donate in your specific case.
