I just got my official results from the blood test from a testing lab. It says my blood type is A positive. But when I did the eldon card from Dr. D a while back, my results showed A negative. Now what? I had already entered A negative in my Swami xpress. It is locked. I had always thought I was A+ but had no proof, so I was surprised when I did the eldon card. I did everything just as the directions said. How could it be wrong?  How do I change my Swami entry?

contact swami support on Monday

can t you go donate and be 100% sure meanwhile?

I can't state what went wrong with your Eldon card test.

E-Mail the support contact link in SWAMI to get any locked location changed.  It will be changed during business hours, depending on the workload.

I guess if the official blood test from the blood lab is accurate, I can quit trying to figure out how I could be A- when my youngest child is A+ and my husband is A+.

Lola - I have given up so much blood for various tests in the last year, that I don't think I have enough left to donate, hehehe.

I think doing two eldon cards is the most accurate possible.

A lot of people in the military have the wrong results. Consider how many millions of people get typed, there will be errors. A friend of mine is O-, she so says... It seems entirely wrong for her to every last notion (like I feel nearly certain we are the same GT). I really want to see her do an eldon card in front of me. A lab did her typing...

I guess you are right, DoS, so I just placed an order for another Eldon card. Which ever of the two are the same, (Eldon-Eldon or blood lab-Eldon) hopefully will be the correct thing. I won't contact Swami support until I have done the test again. Ughhhh!I have done so many blood tests for heart, liver, kidneys, diabetes, cholesterol, blood type, etc. in the past year that I may have permanent bruises on my arms and fingers. Not hehehe!

An A- parent married to an A+ having an A+ would be normal.


However if A- mother had an A+ child she should have been given two shots two Rh immune-globulin shots during her first pregnancy. The first shot would have been given around the 28th week of pregnancy and the second within 72 hours after giving birth.

Particularly if the one after birth was not given, it would indicate significant medical negligence at the place of birth.

Houston, we have a SERIOUS problem!!!!...........

Ok this is the same thing that happened to me. I did Dr. D's blood test 12 years ago, to the result of an o-. I recently went to a lab, and the blood test machine spit out an o+ result for me. I asked the doc, are you sure? He said, in the hundreds of tests, the machine has never been wrong.

So I guess I'm an o+? I'm going to check again, I guess.
