The amount of posters who have the same blood issues and say they deal with it by donating blood is a bit scary. Both because it would help their hemoglobin issue but worsen the anemia. But mainly because I wouldn't want to end up as the recipient of their potentially poisonous blood.

"I have the same thing, it's not a problem" is both terrifying and depressing. Dragging someone else down with them with how serious those health issues can be is sad.

Imagine ignoring your doctor who listened to you and tried to suggest the best possible path, as well as a path that would be less harmful and going "nah that doctor knows nothing. I'll listen to redditors, i'm sure they know more than my doctor"

If your doctor told you to get vaccinated would you?

Yeah, have gone in for travel vaccines and been advised to get a bunch. They're the ones with a big list of what I've had and might need updating to still work and what is a risk where I'm going.
