I can see clearly now the smoke is gone...
Sitting at Labcorp......again........getting more blood work done. I feel like I'm being drained by a vampire every month!![:\](/i/s/hmm.gif "Hmm :\")
I owe Labcorp $650. They don't serve me anymore.
Fuck the Parkinson's, the Dr just gave me a reason to smoke MORE!

I'd take 10 ekgs before one blood test. I'm also pretty hairy, its so itchy when it grows back!
This is me the last time they took blood:

I do too, and I'm there almost every month! Now, I'm just waiting for my arm to bruise....
Can they use a butterfly on you? Might be a nice change from a needle in the arm.

Great idea Tweek. They can only do butterfly on me. I tell them each time I start and they think they can do it but I insist. 100% of the time they tell me I was right to need a butterfly.
Finger pricks also suck. I had one on my thumb that the scar lasted for over a decade before healing. I would probably choose a butterfly blood test over those pricks. I needed them every other day for the month after my heart attack to monitor my blood thinness.

I asked once, and they said they only do that for children and people with small veins. I told them they should add people like me to the list since they can't seem to find my damn veins.

That's bull. I was told it's for kids mainly, but they will use it on adults who are afraid of the traditional way. Some of these technicians have no sympathy.

that's not right they do it for me , sounds more like a lazy or cheap lab corp draw station to me.I asked once, and they said they only do that for children and people with small veins. I told them they should add people like me to the list since they can't seem to find my damn veins.

That's bullshit. I'm a 5'10" adult who needs the butterfly, and every technician I've had has agreed with me. And that is a lot of blood tests over the last few years. This pisses me off...I asked once, and they said they only do that for children and people with small veins.

They don't have any sympathy at all! They are asses at that particular location!
My Rheumatologist asks people to pay $10.00 more to get your blood drawn there at their office, and an extra $3.00 for a butterfly! Talk about cheapskates! They charge me over $400.00 per office visit too!
Needless to say, I never get my blood drawn there.What bothered me, was my very first testicle exam...do they really need to squeeze that hard? I went in for a head cold, and before I knew it, he was trying to pop my balls out of their sack.
By the end I was huddled in the corner.I thought on many occasions that they may have "popped" my testicle.
They are pretty sturdy, I am surprised. Rugged balls.

I know its time for me to go in for a full physical and battery of tests but I've been putting it off for a few months , haven't even had blood works done for months. But fuckin' aye I needed some time off after 25years of this crap. Now my doctor is a bit pissed off with me, don't know if he's gonna fill my Xanax script or not. Fucking Blackmail.
My new Dr. pretty much told me she is going to control all my meds. I was like WTF?
I haven't been for a physical in awhile. The last one was so traumatic, I don't know if I want to do it again.
You missed the first part "Just relax big boy, I gotta get this fist into your asshole"
