Lab visit wasn't too terrible. But I still hate needles. Three vials of blood so all in all not bad. I kept my head turned and talked with the lab tech. It is my own distraction tactic. It usually works pretty well, except when the tech gets careless and misses the vain and tries digging the needle around to see if they can hit it before trying again.
Fortunately, this one had the good sense to not try the same arm twice. Still was not pleased with getting stuck twice, but better than it being more. I hate going to the lab because it never fails nine times out of ten I get stuck more than once. But it is a necessary evil to maintain staying in good health or at least the hope of good health.
