It's an ouchy

Had to have a routine blood test this morning but not too straight forward. As Blood can only be taken from my left arm due to the lymph nodes having been removed on my right arm it's a pain. Lots of my veins were knackered after chemo so after many failed attempts in my elbow pit and in the back of my hand they had to resort to the wrist - ouch!! And it took 2 nurses and finally the doctor, and 50 minutes! I felt really guilty for taking up so much time and so many other peoples appointments would have been so late :(.
