With new Dr.'s comes those dreaded physicals that everyone hates. You know...those "lady" exams and bloodwork (that I don't mind). I am used to getting bloodwork done for this and that, so it doesn't seem to phase me...but I am just not a fan of the "lady" stuff. I've heard it only becomes more fun when you hit age for menopause...so yay for that.
I had to give 9 vials of blood on Monday. I can't ever remember having to give that much! Then today, I had an app't with a new Rheumatoid Specialist, who again, wanted more bloodwork- another 8 vials. My right arm was so dry, they had to do my left and I left throbbing! ARGH! I think I need to become less of a compliant when giving blood. The lady was so nice about me having to give blood 2 days in a row...I was hoping that she'd offer me a lollipop or something. NOPE.
Why can't adults get lollipops? We're fun too, you know! What I think is the most funny, is that I gave so much blood yesterday, that it felt like I was at a Blood Donor Clinic. I haven't donated blood for years, and she told me that it wasn't a good time to start now :)
YIKES! At least we have a Dr. who is doing the whole work up. But I'd be happy to not have to give blood again for a long time!
