I felt brave today, so I went for blood donation for the first time with K's support! I tried to remain strong but the tears just rolled down when the big fat needle was pierced into my skin though it was painless. Anyway, the nursed warned that I may have a bruise since the weaker side vein was used, but I was too proud to let myself give up after getting lanced for my iron test (14.3ng/dl, decent amount!) and insisted on donating blood. Now it seems to me that I have a clogged vein, not a haematoma!
