i'm in for chicken.
the last few times i got stuck (blood test, and IV x2), they had trouble finding my veins.
so i don't think i can handle giving blood... i begged them to not give me an IV when i went to the ER. kekeke that failed. terribly. cuz they stuck it in with my arm at an angle (i was snowboarding so they couldn't roll my many sleeves up all the way) so when i straightened my arm out (after taking my many layers off) i could feel the needle poking around inside my arm -______-

IV uses a much larger needle. I feel your pain about finding veins. When I went in for knee surgery last year, it took them 5 times before they got the IV started. It was pretty painful since they couldn't give me any pain killers. I was actually turning pale.
Giving blood is nothing like that.

I had a similar experience long time ago. The room was cold so I was a bit tensed and the nurse couldnt find a good spot even after few "pokes".... Finally a Dr came in, boom.. First try, he got it! Hehe
