you passed out after only drawing blood for routine tests?
there's something not right...did they talk to you about it? I get blood drawn every 6 weeks and never had a problem. |

i wasn't allowed to eat for 12 hours before and i only got about 4 hours of sleep last night, so that may have had something to do with it
i don't know if it was normal or not, they didn't say otherwise i gotta go back on monday to finish the drawing of the blood |

Getting tested for diabetes or hypoglycemia?
I had to do the hypoglycemia test (it takes most of the day), you take blood in the morning, they give you a sugar drink, then take blood every 30 minutes to see the level of sugar in the blood. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

I had the same thing happen to me twice, once during church and once in my bathroom. They said there was nothing wrong with me just a lack of food and sleep.
