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.)

I always tell them I don't look - but at least I don't faint. One time the person taking blood said they didn't look either and I laughed!

When do you get the results of all these tests?

If they don't look either we're in trouble! :-)

My doctor should have the first set of results by now, I think. I'll ask. The other stuff should be rolling in to the various doctors' offices in about a week. (Then two more tests for Dr. Jain in NY, whenever I feel like taking another half-day off work, and when he has the results of those I'll call him again.)
