You could die! Follow the instructions at the blood bank to the letter. generally it is 2-4 pints no more than every two to three days.

I don't think there would be any side effect in donating blood as long as you are donating with the proper interval. The interval should be every 3 months extracting 450 - 500 ml for men and 250 ml for women for women are discharging blood every month.
