Nightwatch Nation: Excessive Donations (Season 1, Episode 3) | A&E

1. so she just basically exsanguinated herself?

2. Bible Verses

3. 🙋🏻‍♂️

4. Less blood = more alcohol effect while at a location named Tequila. And also helps pay for said alcohol access. Strategy? (Though to her credit at the time of the video taking, to me she didn't appear to be intoxicated) . . Hmm. Signed, RTD Inner-city Paramedic.

5. It's crazy but you can donate 4 times a week at plasma places near me along as It's not donated in a row you have to skip a day

6. Shes got a rare typing and theyre milking her dry.

   Thats my thought. I do too, and I get royal treatment at those places and ads aplenty.

7. donate it just to be charged to get it back lol

8. i know my city i was like that’s Austin- and I was right ☺️🥰

9. Shes clearly is in need for money because she is giving plasma, yet she is at a bar wasting her money smh

10. WTF? DONATES 6 OR 7 TIMES A MONTH!!!!! AREN'T THERE RECORDS KEEPING TRACK OF DONATORS?????

11. Most of y’all are stupid plasma is pretty much just water the FDA states a person can donate plasma twice a week skip at least one to two days between your donations it’s 100% healthy the reason she passed out because after donating plasma your supposed to rest 2-4 hours and drink a gallon of water and eat something healthy she decided to go to a bar and take tequila shots instead of drinking water and she wonders why she passed out becuSe you don’t listen and follow instructions that’s why

12. Drink electrolytes y’all

13. Every three months in canada that we are allowed to give blood. Any sooner they say no…big fat NO and send you home

14. In australia we can only donate every 2 weeks to give the body time to heal. Does america really not do that?

15. see… i wasnt treated this nicely when i fainted and the ambulance was called. they were laughing bc i was crying since i was scared and in pain from how hard i hit my head and kinda just seemed annoyed that i was there and they had to come??

16. When they said low Potassium I did not know what to feel cause my nana has a seizure disorder and a couple months ago or late 2019 she had a mild seizure and they said she had low potassium can any answer what potassium does cause it thought you get it form bananas

17. giver her some red bull, she'll have wings

18. I've never heard of a blood bank allowing you to donate that often, she must be going to different ones and not telling them she's depleted.

19. What medical personnel let her donate that much? And Ofcourse you’re gonna feel sick from that much donating and not eating and drinking alcohol😂 wow

20. I had almost exactly the same thing happen to me. Idonated plasma one day and then was up all night, no food, and then started drinking. I passed out. 😬

21. I have an iron deficiency and something similar will happen to me if my iron levels get low enough

22. that's strange I donated plasma twice a week for well over a year and know of a lot of others that did also and never had a issue

23. In indiana u can donate up to 8 times a month no more than 2 times a week but u gotta eat and drink lots of water

24. I thought she passed out because of donations as a camgirl.

25. Paramedics (Advanced Life Support) would start an IV which they then did, and would give something called lactated ringer‘s bolus solution.

    “…lactate solution, also known as sodium lactate solution and Hartmann's solution, is a mixture of sodium chloride, sodium lactate, potassium chloride, and calcium chloride in water. It is used for replacing fluids and electrolytes in those who have low blood volume or low blood pressure.”

    That would be my guess with her potassium being low even though they didn’t know that at the time, As well as low blood pressure – LR IV Bolus treatment Would Be beneficial to this patient in the EMS setting.

26. Potassium imbalance is no joke. I have that same problem whenever I have an asthma attack.

27. They need to shut that place down 6 OR 7 MONTHS. That’s not okay , like not at all

    M

28. Give plasma, then go out drinking. I thought I was dumb…

29. Six or Seven times a month thank you for donating your a hero but ummm please cut back that not healthy

30. Obviously whatever doctor she's going to doesn't care for her health just wants her blood..

31. Donating blood and plasma are very different.. Plasma you get paid for the time you spend there most would think its for the plasma its for the time… bc the process can be time consuming depending on the person. You can donate twice in a 7 day period that is it so people have there set days most time they come regularly in that month. If you are eating healthy and drinking plenty of water answering the screening questions honestly and also answering the questions of the on site nurses you should not have these reactions. Yes they can happen some people just can not handle donating that is alright. Trained personal also nurses that help with reactions if they happen at the center. Alcohol is dehydrating her for one she needed to be drinking plenty of water eating something…. The blood is given back to her along with white blood cells other proteins. Saline is mandatory so she got electrolytes back she need more was probably told exactly that remember drink water…. Ect..

32. My niece was doing this and she about died. You can't do that people.
