Question 1:

How do I protect my self from blood poisoning?

Greetings,

Complex question Alice - but relatively simple to avoid. When dealing with blood always use an extreme amount of caution. Blood poisoning usually occurs when an unsanitary object punctures an artery or vein. The infection starts at the puncture site and quickly spreads via the blood stream to the rest of the body. Often there is a red line, following the vein, leading into the body from the puncture site. If this occurs, run don’t walk to the nearest hospital. Blood poisoning can be life threatening if not immediately treated.

Having cautioned on the consequences, blood poisoning is easy to avoid. Always wash and clean an area where blood is to be taken before making a wound. Never use an unsanitary knife such as Exacto blade. The Vampire Church recommends using individually wrapped sterile lancets. They are for one time use only. Never allow a someone to put their mouth on an open wound – this is extremely unsanitary. And never, never, never cut directly into an area where there is a possibility of nicking or cutting into a vein or artery.

Safe blood practices are sane blood practices and be well enjoyed between two people that have had all the appropriate testing.

Regards,
LA Judge

Question 2:

I think I am vampire. I said I think because it is different what I heard about being vampire. Meanings of symbols are different for me... (blood, sun..) This is my question; is it possible to turn back? I feel lonely.

Greetings,

It seems as if you may have several things going on. First of all know that vampirism is a human physiological condition. People affected with vampirism have bodies that do not produce enough living energy (prana or chi) to function normally. Vampirism is not related to symbols interpretation or feelings of depression. While many affected with vampirism do feel “lonely” it is just because they have no one to take with about the vampire condition. As for “is it possible to turn back?” – No it is not. Vampirism is not a choice or a disease. It is a human physiological condition with which the affected person is born and they will always be affected in that way.

Here are some links to a few basic links to a couple papers on vampirism that perhaps may give you some info with which to start:
