Well, I forgot how much these suck! I'm not sure I'll make it. Before, generally when I did them, I'd have had no scarb (simple carb/aka sugar) for a long time, so my blood sugar would usually make it at least until 4:00. Today, not so sure. So if I end up with violently shaking hands before late afternoon, I may have to abort the mission. For now, I'm on an herbal tea IV.
Probably not the best day for me to have given four tubes of blood at the hospital, yes? But I'm trying to divide and conquer. This was the most, er, convenient day to do one; and with my weight continuing to creep up, I'm trying to do something to stop it, or at least slow it. I finished the last of the cortisol tests (save one more midnight saliva test coming up tonight--which only takes a few minutes) this morning. That required running in to the hospital.
So after tomorrow morning, when I can mail all my remainig stuff in, I can chill out a bit--at least until my pending doctor visits (one in November, two in December). Answers? Yes, please.
