I cannot win. Yesterday I went down to the docs to get my blood tested to see how tasty it is, only to be told that they’re at capacity for the day (11am) and come back another day.

Today I go in, take a number and get called in only to be told that I’ve OVER FASTED by an hour or so. I had no idea you could over fast for a blood test. Apparently the sweet spot is between 8 and 12 hours of fasting and I was on hour 15. The lab generally doesn’t do tests over 14 hours.

And today is my last day in Melton so I’m going to have to come back another time, which isn’t so bad because I can come visit my family. I wasn’t going to see the doc again to get results for a month so I’ll just do it on one of the weekends coming up I guess.

Annoying because I psyched myself up for the needle… twice… I am historically not great with needles/having blood drawn.
