Medical morning

[cjsmith]

This morning's agenda kept me hopping:

- Blood draw for Lyme disease test
- Doctor appointment with my GP, which earned me...
- Blood draw for vitamin D levels and a very detailed cholesterol panel

And guess what I did? Am I doing better or WHAT?

I

WATCHED.

A half hour later my blood pressure was still a touch lower than expected, so yeah, there are effects, but overall I'm getting so much better about needles and suchlike. (I do, however, have a new bruise inside each elbow.)

It was really weird to look at the needle in my arm, to just sit there and LOOK at it. With all the problems I've had with needles over the years, I've honestly pretty much never seen a needle in me.
