Here's a couple tricks for you Xaam, as I tend to run just under their acceptable limit as well (they require 38, I usually run 37). Take multivitamins twice a day the week before, eat lots of Malt-O-Meal (high in iron), green beans (also high in iron), and drink a ton of water. Try to eat something high in iron about an hour or so before the scheduled donation. Worked for me last time (which was about three weeks ago). Pie, I don't know what local blood drives they have, but worst comes to worst we could all go down to the main center by Legacy Emanuel Hospital.
