Today ka cheng jiu (”backside itchy”).

Went for a rather thorough blood test. All you could think of.
Uhm…well, almost.

End result : 20cc of blood had to be drawn out.
*ack!*
*faints*

That’s a lot.
Well, at least it is for me – where my first experience was just last month. That was about 10cc. At least the syringe looked friendlier. This time around – 20cc syringe. D’you know how big is the syringe? It looks bigger than my fat butt.
*hehe*
Whoa!

Thankfully, when it came to my turn, the Medical Assistant decided to just jump straight to using an infusion tubing rather than the normal syringe-needle method – previously when Joanne was there, he used the normal syringe-needle method and she ended up with a bruised arm. It was a painful experience, too!
*phew!*
Jin Song was also given the same “treatment” as Joanne – whereby the Staff Nurse used the normal syringe-needle method on him…got about 5cc of blood and went, “Aiyo. Cannot la, not enough.” She disposed that syringe and started with another fresh 20cc syringe!!!
At least Joanne was 10cc normal method and 10cc infusion tubing. Meaning total blood withdrawn from Jin Song would be 25cc!

*eeeek!*

*faints*

And I didn’t want to look at blood flowing out from either of us. But I had no choice since the MA couldn’t “find” the vein on my right hand, I hand to turn and face Jin Song who was sitting on my right – to rest my left arm on the table. I could feel my knees all wobbly as blood was coming out of his arm and into the syringe.

*faints again*

And as usual, I was madly giggly!
UGH!
So stupid but yet so afraid!
*hehe*

So that was how my day went.
