Blood tests are my least favourite part of being on HRT, but my latest visit to the vampires has left me feeling sorry for myself thanks to a collapsed vein

At 74 and with a lot of weight loss I have a condition known as 'rolling veins'. I cannot count the times a nurse/phlebotomist has had to poke me to find a vein. It really burns when they go through the vein.
Nothing like having your blood taken 3 - 4 times a day.
Missing veins started early. When I was in the Navy (1965) I had a medical technician miss the very obvious vein in my elbow 6 times. He saw my clenched fist on my other arm and decided to take a little more care and found the vein the next stick.

"Disobedience in the eyes of any one who has read history is man's original virtue. "—Oscar Wilde.
If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the Government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it is all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag.
