Vampires

Blood tests are terrible.

Actually, not being able to get through a blood test is worse!!!

I've tried two times this week to get a blood test, both have failed. The first time they said not enough time had elapsed since I last took my meds, so I would need to come back. The second time she stuck the needle in me, wiggled it around for a while, could not get any blood, so decided to try again on the other arm. She stuck another needle in, still could not get any blood, wiggled it around some more, asked me if it hurt (duh), decided to take it out as I was going unconscious into the second worse seizure I've had. They got me to lie down etc... but still NO BLOOD!!!

I have to go back on Tuesday. Did I mention my doctor needed these results four days ago?

Gah.

Thank goodness for Stefan who drives me, especially seeing as I definitely cannot take the bus by myself during this expedition. Also, he knows when I'm still in a seizure, unlike the lab technicians.

I've been feeling terrible all day, stupid seizure.

I discovered over the years that laying down while getting needles is always the best thing to do for those who are 'faint' at heart. I've also discovered that those same people shouldn't give blood but in your case there's no choice. Ask God to enlarge your veins - He will!
