My Phlebotomy Appointment...

[Edwardanime]

omg i know how that goes. i ust to freak out about it. when i was in the hospital and had blood taken alot during that stay so now i just get alittle nervous and gittery.

[jennykts]

you know what helped me? they told me that the small vial was really only equal to like a teaspoon and the big a tablespoon! either way they fucked up and i had this big mark on my vein for a week that looked like i was an addict. a trainee did it and i literally heard the trainer GASP and take over wiping up all this blood. like you, i didn't look. :)

good luck wit

;-)

I wish I had!! But he probably thinks I pass out all the time now...could you see that?....in the hay with Doctor "McDreamy" and **flop** I pass out cause he "sticks" me. No bueno for him I guess lol.

[Bradly62]

Have you always passed out at the sight of blood? Wow...that is funky...

[ulaladiva]

Not usually...I see my blood when I scrape/cut/scuff myself and it doesn't bother me.  I think what it was was my blood pressure spiking due to the panic I had from seeing the vials of it. Maybe I hadn't adjusted fully yet or something **shrug** hehe

Woo hoo!! over and done with. Glad you didn't get injured and you got a cool band-aid to boot.

**Hugs**

HEHE Thx babe!! I'm happy it's over too.....Wonder when I go back again... /ponder

[daisael]

lol, you just made me visualize the whole drama scene...

i gave my psp away, since i never use it. maybe i should bully my niece, and take it back. what do you think? -___o

[ulaladiva]

BEAT HER UP AND TAKE IT BACK!! haha j/k I'd recommend buying another one....kids have a tendency to wreck expensive/delicate electronics, lol.

[daisael]

haha, you're telling me...my lil' 2yrs ol' nephew broke 2 of my drawing tablets,poured his juice on my laptop, scratched my xbox games; specially my gears (why god=*sobbing*)...then the lil' bastard smiles at me, and melts my heart ^____^

(but I'm still never having kids)

[DreamingDamiana]

I got all woozy when I had bloodwork done because I hadn't eaten yet. That fainting feeling is so bad, complete lack of control. Really disconcerting.

[ulaladiva]

Very much so!! I have this dream sometimes where I pass out and become a secret agent trapped in a hospital by crazy doctors, and I'm trying to escape. I was thinking about it today and was like...."Hmmm, maybe that's why I was kicking my feet..."

[Dreaming2BTerri]

Nurse "McDreamy" nursed me back...he was worth it, lol

[hintgiver]

The way you passed out sounds really intense. Though I am glad you are okay. I would give blood at the red cross back when i lived in the united states. The people there would put the needle in my arm first and -then- look for a vein, extremely painful. However, they got my blood each time and I got a bruise. At least you came out of it quickly.

I see people on the train with PSP. I only have a DS. Is a PSP worth the purchase even though I have a DS? Keep smiling!

Peace and Love,

Diana

It was quite intense, although I'm sure I have plenty more chances to pass out in the future. Better get used to it now, right? ^^

DS vs PSP? I love my PSP more. It has a streaming music player with 30+ genres and about 20 stations per genre, store/view photos/music/video, download themes/games. With the DS it's caard and go, lol. I love them equally for their games. If I wanna play kiddie stuff, I go to the DS...if I wanna play more mature content, I go to the PSP ^^ A toss up, really.
