Are people with Fibromyalgia eligible to donate blood?
Yes, because there is nothing about the condition that might present a risk to a blood recipient. Fibromyalgia is not transmitted through the blood, but rests in a basic malfunction of the individual’s body in a very specific way. It is not the condition that would provide a reason to reject the blood, it is the presence of certain drugs in the bloodstream that were taken too closely to the time at which the donation is offered.
