You might have du positive. It is a weak d antigen. So any person with negative blood group should be checked for this weak d. It can be confirmed by du test. And you should search for o negative donor. if youbhave o negative or weak d in both cases you need o negative blood. So search for o negative.
thanks for using health care magic.
