The BIG TB test.....

for out homestudy update. Oh how fun it was!! Yeah right! Chad was out of town so I decided that I would be a big girl and go all by myself. WRONG!! I broke all of my rules for how to 'handle' being stuck with a needle. You see there's a process I have to go through to prepare myself. First I have to eat breakfast, then I have to lay down, and lastly NO MATTER WHAT I don't look at the injection site! I broke EVERY last blasted rule I've always followed since I discovered I have the vaso-vagal response (fainting due to sudden loss of blood pressure). Some people will never know what this response is like but after an episode you feel completely horrible for the rest of the day. It took me an hour to recover before I felt comfortable enough to drive away! Let's just say that I've learned my lession and I will NEVER try to be a big girl again when it comes to needles!!
