Fwehh!!

We went for the blood test this morning, and it was much easier than expected. I was wrong about not being able to have the tournequet on for the test...that was the lactic acid; the test that needed to be repeated was the pyruvic acid. The lab tech got it in one stick...big thanks for all of the prayers...I know that's the only reason it was so much easier.

Something a little irritating though....the tech called the lab where the test is done to be sure that they followed protocol to make sure that we wouldn't have to do it again, and the real reason for the repeat was revealed: the people at the lab spilled some of the sample last time and didn't have enough to complete the test. It had nothing to do with being frozen or anything else like the lady had told me on the phone yesterday. That could really get to me, but I'm going to choose to let it go...it is over and Lydia is fine.

Last time we had these tests run (when Lydia was in the hospital), the results took a couple of weeks. I assume that the same will be true this time. I will definitely post when I get any information about it.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!
