Just got back from my doctor's appointment. He wasn't concerned about the extra protein in my blood but the small amount of sugar in there did cause some concern. Basically what happens now is that I have to fast for fourteen hours on Friday, go in for a blood test on Saturday morning, drink some sugar drink that he's gonna provide and then go back

Well I guess we'll just see what happens. My mood is always bitter and jaded so if I start listening to N'Sync you'll know what's up.

I had the Glucose Tolerence Test...It's not pretty, I ended up throwing up....Maybe the test was pretty but I wasn't, either way, ENJOY!!!

I'm okay once the needle is actually in me. It's the sickening anticipation that gets to me.

I had a blood test a few weeks ago. Luckily everything came back fine...which still doesn't tell me why I still get a bit shaky sometimes.

But the guy was definately nice. I honestly thought I was going to have to wait for like 2 hours or they would be like...ohhh you need to book and appointment come back at 12. This is when I had to go downtown to this other place. But everything was cool. Mr heartthrob doctor as I will refer to him, was really nice. I'm still glad I didn't have to balding old lady with ugly shoes. Yeah... the mr heart throb doctor wasn't really that cute, but the two other girls working kept looking in on us every time they walked by.

Also, I watched him take most of my blood. It was weird.

My doc is really cool and has been a friend of the family for years but I'm still freaked out everytime I gotta go see him.
