Edited to add I am a very hard stick on a good day! 😬
Welp off to the lab I go cause the nurse practitioner couldn’t get blood out of me. And I’ve never had anyone freak out because I tried to watch them draw blood. She was like you’re going to flinch if you watch me please lean back and close your eyes. I’ve never had anyone ever ask me to do that EVER.
The ultrasound showed a few slightly swollen lymph nodes under my jaw but nothing of note. The allergy test on my arms he said was nothing significant. So they sent me to the lab, done in 10 min with a butterfly needle. They said next time to just have them send me to them first. Lol they definitely had better luck getting my blood… 🩸
