Bleeding

September 20, 2018

I had my blood work done today for my current Hematologist. Looked up on my health record what exactly he was checking…big surprise-my blood count levels. I suppose I’ll know those results tomorrow. I slept a lot today…feeling more drained than usual. I can’t really comment on how my arm is feeling. As it was my day off, I take pride in the fact I managed to do absolutely nothing today other than stopping at the hospital for the bloodwork. The technician that drew my blood had an entertained look on her face. I had asked her “have you ever drawn my blood before?” to which her response was no. I naturally told her the speech of how I have rolling veins, but also have an identical vein on each arm towards the outside where most everyone else likes to draw my blood, and they found using the butterfly needle works best so when my vein moves, the needle tends not to push on the other side of it. She just looked at me funny like “dang she apparently does this a lot”. I thought it was funny a little. People think I’m knowledgable about medical things, but really it’s just that I’ve had all the terms surrounding all my tests and results repeated to me when I ask questions, that I just know what partains to myself.

Some cool news I got today was that I might be able to get in at the American Legion where I live for me to sing and get paid for it, so that would be awesome to help make the spare money I can use to travel to the Mayo Clinic.
