I get stuck about every six weeks and it isn't fun as they can only use one of my arms, and that isn't doing so well. It's been stuck way to many times in the past 15 years. I have a wonderful lab tech, Jake, and he usually finds something. He says I'm wonderful as I don't complain. It certainly does hurt when they have to dig for blood. I go on Friday and this will be the big one for the Philadelphia Chromosomes (T cells). On Gleevec I got down to 1, but that's as low as I ever got. I'm hoping for the best this time. Wish me luck. I will try to let you know how it goes. I will try to remember to ask for a print out of my blood work. I never pay any attention to it.
Best wishes to everyone....Millie ----- Original Message ----- From: icandoall...@aol.com To: CMLHope@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2009 5:33 PM Subject: [CMLHope] Re: Latest Hem./Onc. visit Great SusieQ! Those labs can be scary at times. Last week, the nurse was getting my blood and it was hurting; she was moving the needle all around and she looks at me and ask me if it's hurting. I told her sometimes it hurts like mad and sometimes, the nurse just goes in and gets the blood, no problem. I think some nurses are more adept at getting the blood than others.
