More tests still, Suze????
for an easy time, this should be a piece of cake. Which you can't eat, since it's not diet cake. But HEY, it's the thought that counts, right? So glad I could be of help.

I hate having blood drawn. They can never find my veins so I get poked and prodded. Then they leave me with a big bruise on my arm!


I hope it goes easily for you!

I go to this one place called Quest Diagnostics, and they always hit my vein first jab. I've had blood drawn and they had to try and try and try........very aggravating for all concerned. This morning went ok though. In and out in 10 minutes. Thanks for the vibes guys!

Best of luck today. A bit of advice -- think of something peaceful and soothing while the blood is being drawn as this makes it a lot easier (personally I think of a warm beach vacation and it works every time). Again, thanks for your gift!

Already been and gone, and no, mine wasn't a heffer like Nikki's but she had the personality of a brick. I think that people who work in the medical field should learn how to put people that are nervous at ease, don't you???

I vaguely remember seeing where a doctor wrote a book on his experiences of being a patient. He hadn't realized how distant the medical community can be until he needed their attention.
