NOT AT ALL ABNORMAL: the effect of doing something nice, of value, for others is often VERY relaxing....(Not to mention the feeling of being HEALTHY which you have after being SCREENED for such a donation! KEEP GIVING! and KEEP RECEIVING! Hope this is helpful Dr Z

Probably: Although there is no physical reasons why you may feel this way, the fact is that you have gained emotional well-being and satisfaction by having contributed to others' benefit.
