These Are Some Blood Conditions That Can Be Sometimes Related Or Mistaken For Vampirism
Hematolagnia: A small minority of people are sexually aroused by drinking human blood. They have a condition called hematolagnia -- popularly called a blood fetish. This is normally considered a paraphilia, and is one of many dozens of unusual sexual interests that is often their sole means of sexual gratification. Because of the public's frequent desire to be absolutely normal in their sexual practices, people with hematolognia -- or any other paraphilia are often despised and even feared.
Vampyres believe that they need to ingest blood in order to maintain their strength. They are not driven by sexual gratification. There is no real connection between vampyrism and hematolagnia.
Porphyria: This is a group of at least eight rare disorders. They cause substances which are normally found at low levels to gradually build up in the human body . In most types of porphyria, the individual will have a strong reaction to sunlight. Areas of the skin which are exposed to the sun may burn, blister or scar. 1 Some of the myths about vampirism might have been originally based on individuals with a porphyria who would avoid sunlight and only come out at night.
It Is Important To Be Informed And To Be Safe And To Use The Proper Precautions When Working With Blood Be It For Feeding Or Any Other Purposes
(There are many blood-borne diseases that can be transmitted from donor to Vampyre)
example is the HIV virus -- the virus that causes AIDS. Even a miniscule, unnoticed injury to the Vampyre's gums can allow the donor blood to enter the blood stream and infect the Vampyre.
Blood cannot be safely drawn from a donor without trained medical assistance.
Excessively enthusiastic donors may damage their health by donating too much blood at one time, or by drawing blood too frequently.
Excessively enthusiastic vampyres might consume too much blood at one sitting. This could lead to an overdose of iron or other blood component.
If a person wishes to engage in blood donation in spite of the dangers, we strongly recommend that any they discuss the matter with their health care provider in advance. A course in First Aid may be very useful.
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies suggests as a general guide:The donor should be in good health.
They should weigh more than 45 or 50 kg (about 100 or 110 pounds).
They should be aged between 18 and 65.
They should meet the guidelines necessary to protect the health of both donor and receiver.
Donate about 450 to 470 ml maximum
