Donating plasma?

I'm 7 weeks post-op and wondering if donating plasma is safe. On the website of the place I want to donate they state that bypass patients must wait 12 months but nothing is said about sleeve patients. Of course the place won't discuss matters over the phone so I was wondering if anyone on here knew. Thanks :)

No! Your own body needs that right now. Just because you feel better doesn't mean you're healed completely. It takes about 6 months to recover from any surgery. In addition,!WLS puts special demands in your body. RNY or Sleeve. It doesn't need to work any harder to replace plasma on top of everything else. You should wait. You'll have plenty of time to help others later!
