My blood type is O-.
Edited on Mon Jan-19-09 08:35 PM by HypnoToad
Most of my organs are in very good shape.

I have no physiological ailments.

If anybody needs a transplant, send me a PM.

12. Well...
I'm saddened to find out that BE NEGATIVE is worth more than BE POSITIVE.

My blood type is BE POSITIVE and I'm very proud of it!

17. us Cherokees have BE blood
that is why we still continue to thrive and exist. The negative factor is nothing but a word which means nothing to me.

Osiyo!

22. Then I'm O - also
I was told that I was a universal donor so I could donate blood to any other blood type. Didn't know if that meant + or - Thanks for setting me straight.

9. O- here too; also CMV-
Found this out when my sis underwent an autologous bone marrow transplant (15 years cancer free) our donated plasma had to be pristine as she had no immune system for a time.

37. You're lucky, though; you can receive almost anybody's blood
Though AB+ are the ones who really get to cash in that way.

29.  I have 0 neg..my parents are both + (A+ & O+). Can my neg have been
handed down by ancestors?
Doubt I'm really adopted, even though, at age 12/13 I swore I was.
(My 4 siblings are +)

36. Rh- is a recessive allele
So your parents are both carriers of it.

40. Interesting. I didn't know that. & .thank you.
Someone had told me once that one parent MUST be neg if their child is neg.

Haven't given it much thought until this post showed up.
Appreciate your answer.

41. I need a transplant
but have chosen not to go that route because of the cost. My sister had a kidney transplant many years ago and the cost was exorbitant, even with insurance. There is no way I would saddle my family with the costs for a few extra years.
