Someone else's screwup makes it easier for me to ignore stuff like labs. But go get it done.

I hope I'm not too late to get in on the smacking.   ;D

Silly! You should know by now that the Phlebotomist is the technician who draws blood.

Andrew-
is it just the usual jitters or is there some reason for concern? I haven't been as active here as I should be and might have missed something.

I did it.  I got stuck by the sweetest phlebotomist.  So cute and midwestern.  Anyway, at the end he was like, "do you want a bandage rapped around or just a band-aid?"  I just looked at him funny.  Maybe he never paid attention to what the blood was drawn for before.  I also felt like this other woman was hovering around for some reason.

IT IS REALLY HARD FOR ME TO GET MY BLOOD DRAWN HERE, BECAUSE ITS JUST ME AND A BUNCH OF ELDERLY PEOPLE IN WHEEL CHAIRS AND WITH WALKERS.

Whatever...

I think I am doing well health-wise, thanks Brent :)

We shall see on July 20th.

Bests,
Drew

Drew-

Although I feel certain that you'll be fine (just a feeling), I'm glad you're going. Procrastination/avoidance/dissociation is one of my specialty numbers too, sweetheart.

Have you had your blood taken yet?

Found this about phlebotomy - and how it used to be done - YUCK.

Roughly roundabout somewhere in the eighteenth or nineteenth century, Sodomite begat Homosexual out of moral, medical and legal models, bequeathing him Identity, who inbred with Nuclear Family and Industrialism to spawn Homophobia.
