    I'm O-.  I also approve this possibility.  Also because that blood type runs in my family.   I think both my Mom and my Grandfather are also O-.

    I also don't seem to get sick as much as other people do.   I might get a flu or bronchitus every 5-10 years.... the old cold.. but most of the time I don't even use sick days.   I wonder of O- prevents other diseases too?
    me too. i haven't had a cold or flu in at least 2 years. and i have two kids. 
    Blood type is one of those things I can never remember. 

    I need to write it down somewhere. 
    I have my dog tags from the Navy on my keychain. It lists B POS.

    Funny (not funny), but I had the same thing last week.  Could have sworn I had this shit, but turned out to just be a cold turned sinus infection.  Nasal swab/antibody test were both negative :)

    Awesome.  Fingers crossed. I get sinus infections all the time but because it is a “symptom” I got tested again.

    Same here.  Last time I had a general physical, I asked my doc if they had my blood type on record.  He said, "No, you'll have to make an appointment for lab work to find out."  I didn't express my exasperation but I was miffed.  I thought it was a simple thing to find out.  Wait- I have to go to a lab for that?  Screw that!

    Same here, I was running a slight fever and was questioning if I was smelling/tasting right, ha. Just knew the tests were going to come back positive and was a bit bewildered when they didn’t! Feel great now so 👍

    My wife wasn't sure so I told her just to call her doc and he can look it up. it must be on record. 

    or at least I would think.

    I feel like a fucking dunce as I cannot recall mine, either.  Just had blood drawn late last year and forgot to ask.

    Oh, that sucks!  I have a couple friends with similar bans and they hate it.  They still get calls from the donor organizations and have to keep telling them they cannot.
