So, Friday I went to go get my blood tested. Once I found the right place to get it tested and waited for my turn I was pretty nervous. I had never given blood before. The lady who was doing it was really nice, but had a hard time with me. I guess my veins are really small and hard to work with. She got about 2/3 of the blood she needed from my right arm then it stopped giving blood. She then tried another vein on that arm, but it didn't give any blood. Finally she went to my left arm, but the vein was too small to find. By this point I was feeling really dizzy. I told her this, but I guess I blacked out for a second. They had to lay me down on a couch and fill out a report. I was embarrassed that I couldn't handle it. They didn't get all the blood they needed, but said it would be fine and sent me home. I think they were scared to try again.
So, I feel great but I hope they don't have me go give blood too many times. :)
