I went in for my glucose test today, so of course I quit eating at about 11 last night. Didn't get to sleep until about 2am and the alarm went off at 7:15am for my 8am appointment.

BP couldn't be better (122/80) And I've lost 3lbs down to 220.5.

So they took my blood from my right arm like they normally do (I think my vein is easier to find on that side). Then gave me a wonderful orange drink and it was pretty good but SUGARY! lol. I'm drinking it and Earl asks what it is. I said "basically sugar water with flavor and coloring." "Oh, it's Kool-aid" I love him. Sad part is, he's right lol.

So doc comes and measures my stomach for the first time. 28cm So according to my actual last period (it was the 9th, for some reason I told them 17th) I'm RIGHT on schedule. My U/S said I measured a week ahead as well, so it definitely ases my mind knowing I'm right on schedule

But after a LONG HOUR (mind you we are both exhausted from basically staying up all night) I go back in and the draw my blood from my left arm. All's good until I take my jacket off halfway home and my shirt has blood on it! Turns out for some reason it just BLED! And it's swollen and bruised, but she was SO GENTLE! my body doesn't like someone taking from it! I also think she missed the vein or went all the way through because there's no reason it should be this swelled and sore to the touch!! my right arm's FINE. GRR
