What blood cults have a God that required their son's blood in a sacrifice to enable them to forgive?
Q. I have heard of a cult in which they have a God that is all "powerful " but only the blood of a human sacrifice could enable this God to forgive, because he could not brake his own rule. All powerful but the blood of his son in a sacrifice-execution could only work to forgive. What blood cults have this type of God?

How long can a person have blood infection?
Q. The reason I ask is that i would basically like to know if it is possible for an infection to enter the system even if it was mild, and how long bacteria would be in the blood? I had two infections in one go, both treated with antibiotics, I was still feeling ill so I had some blood tests including Full Blood Count and Blood Cultures among other tests, the tests all came back perfectly clear. But I have been getting worse and I am now getting told that it is all psychological. However, I would like to know how long a person can have blood infection/sepsis? Would having had antibiotics mask the test results?

A. Very good questions. I cannot answer them, I am sorry, but I will advise that you get a second opinion from someone other than the one who told you it was in your head. A blood infection is very serious, and can be difficult to diagnose as well. Get yourself to another doctor ASAP, and tell them your worries. Doctors are not omnipotent, but they do have egos, and they don't like being challenged in their diagnoses, so maybe that's where the "in your head" business came from. They tend to stick to diagnosing and treating the usual, common maladies, so you need to be proactive. Just keep being a pest til you get treatment that makes you feel better. Good luck and take care!

A. Blood thinners don't clear the clot. You're body does. The blood thinners just prevent the clot from getting any bigger. It can actually take quite a while for your body to break up the clot, but the patient usually leaves the hospital after their blood levels stabilize on oral anti-coagulants (blood thinners.)

A. The make-up of dog blood is the same as human. You can study it and do smears, check levels of various parts just like human blood. And dogs have blood types too. But they are a differenct species so their blood cells are unique to them. The human body would reject the cells as foreign matter and vice- versa. This is why you cannot give dog blood to cats either. Good question !!

There are two main groups which are though, and you can get dogs that lack both of those antigens. Cattle and horses also have many blood groups. Equine hospitals don't bother matching blood for compatability though, they just use a universal donor. Cattle medicine doesn't cross match blood groups either, because you can get away with one transfusion that doesn't match without killing the cow. Pigs I ave totally forgotten.

Can I donate white bloods cells less than two months after donating a pint of blood?
Q. I have a relative with leukemia who is in need of white blood cells. I am the proper blood type, so would like to offer to come down to donate, but I just gave a pint of blood on May 10. I think they typically say that you must wait 8 weeks between blood donations, but is it the same with white blood cells? From reading the description of the procedure, it sounds like you don't lose much blood, so it wouldn't seem like 8 weeks would be necessary for just the whites.

A. They blood type so that they can match the parentage of certain blood types. Mainly because it used to be so easy for folks to swap papers on horses. If you had a horse who matched the colour, approximate age, sex and markings on a horse who the horsetrader had and say died, they'd attach the papers to another horse and sell it as a "Registered" horse. I figured that part out back in the early 1970's when I knew a gray mare who's white markings you could see when she was wet didn't match the papers that were on her.

How does the blood in the tissues of the human body return to the heart?
Q. If a pinprick is made in, for example, a fingertip, blood is found there. But there are no arteries or veins there, What is the path by which the blood returns to the heart from say, a fingertip?
Asked by seismic111542 - Fri Sep 5 19:39:38 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In between all of your arteries and veins are capillaries. Basically your arteries branch off and get smaller and smaller until it is so small that you have blood in between a wall of two cells. Those are your capillaries. Then your capillaries start branching together again to form your veins. Your arteries, veins, and capillaries are collectively known as your blood vessels. When you cut yourself and bleed, it is because you've cut into the capillaries (assuming of course you haven't cut a vein or artery). In fact, if you get slapped and you notice your skin turn red, it's because the force of the blow caused the capillaries beneath your skin to burst. The same is true when you get a bruise.
