    Question One: I recently gave blood to the IBTS about 3-4 weeks ago..... When do i get my little card thingy? They said in the post, Did anyone else get one after giving blood? If so how long did it take?

    Question Two (Most Important One): Does anyone know where i can get a FULL blood work-up done? Me and a Mate are being kinda test subjects for another mate in college. Basically we get blood tests know, fill out some 50 odd questions. Then we eat mad healthy diets and exercise for two months and get another blood test and fill out the same 50 odd health questions and see the difference. But he needs to find out where to get this done.... Anyone?

    I went to my doc a few months ago and told him it was time for a check-up. he said he'd give me the full blood tests and sent me to Vincents hospital with some sort of form for them. If you go to the doc you dont have to pay the hospital, just the 45Euro (or whatever the fee) for your doc.
    I think the results took about 3 weeks to come back.

    Hope this experiment is not too mad... :D

    one would think that if this was a dedicated scientific or social experiment, then the blood tests would be included in the whole experiment.

    Yeah, shouldn't this have been done from the start to assess your suitability for these experiments?

    I took over month, maybe 6 weeks before I got my card. I'm O neg (can be given to anyone) so I get all the begging letter and texts and phonecalls now for my blood!

    Of course not, you could sell it and make millions from my precious blood!! Only I can profit from it.. and well the sick people that get it... humm, well maybe, but just a signature, no wishing you well or anything!
