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.)

Boy, they just don't make a Hallmark card for this one, do they?

"Congratulations on watching your blood draw!"

Heh.

HAHAHAHAHA no they don't! :-) What a HUGE market that would be. Transitioning-Ex-Needlephobes make up an enormous percentage of the population. Hallmark is missing the boat on this one, I'll tell ya. :-)
