At one time doctors transfused blood from the younger people into the elderly because they thought that will give them more energy. Do elderly have older blood?

The elderly have blood that has ran through their bodies longer so yes, it is older. A transfusion can help when blood supply is low.

What if a b negative person is transfused with b positive blood?
If you have B-positive blood, you can get B-positive or B-negative blood. But if you have B-negative blood, you will need only get B-negative blood. B-negative blood is used for emergencies when there's no time to test a person's B type. I do not recommend transfusions at all. They have side effects and risk no matter what doctors are telling you. It has nothing to do with religion beliefs or something. Even, thought, I am religion. Anyway.. Here: The doctors can make a mistake and give you a risk of infections. For me, I had lost of blood when I were young -- between 10 to 14 years old -- I dont remember. I told mom that I refused this transfused and she agreed. See ? I am alive and well in 30's. No blood transfused need. All I need is rest plenty and eats lots as well as few sugars such as cookies and fruits. Its helped a lot. Hope it helps. Be wise! Dont listen to the doctors. There are many new viruses awaiting thanks to blood transfusions.. Its not natural!
Are there doctors who would put you on a nerve pill if you thought you needed it?
I hope that there are NO doctors who would put you on any kind of medication because you thought you needed it. It is perfectly ok for a doctor to put you on medication if the doctorthinks you need it. No competent physicians will give medical advice in a forum like this. The important thing for you to do is to get to your doctor.
