I have ehlers danlos and I get six or more tubes taken each draw, suck it up you big baby, or stop complaining you have to go in multiple times.

"My veins roll"

Yeah that's why we anchor them, whiny brat.

A short tube on a 40 y/o is unnecessary anyway. Tell them to drink some water, suck it up and get big boy tubes drawn.

"what do you mean, you could only run the metabolic panel?"

First off, your tech sent a goddamn short tube with only .9mL and you ordered an ANCA with reflexes, a celiac panel and TWO allergy panels. All that needs at least 10mL.

AND THE TECH HAEMOLYSED THE SAMPLE THEY DID SEND.

It didn't even hit me it was Wednesday, not even when a crow was laughing at me from the top of my car this morning.

It's also grey, foggy, overcast and cold.

Yeah. It's a Wednesday.

When you find a G1 for 250g and you discover she has two pieces of lovely art, too!

@InspectorCaracal@tootplanet.space and it is very tasty. It's minty, but smooth and sweet with notes of vanilla and the cocoa is more warmth than chocolate. WONDERFUL.

@InspectorCaracal@tootplanet.space I have a suspicion on who it might be, as I was geeking about tea with a coworker last week and mentioned I drink peppermint tea before bed for my GERD

we did secret santa at work and I didn't sign up bc I couldn't afford it but someone left a gift on my desk anyway and NO ONE WOULD FESS UP BUT I'M SO GRATEFUL BC IT WAS TEA.

Peppermint Bark tea! Rooibos with cocoa, peppermint and vanilla! IT'S DELICIOUS

Winding down with peppermint tea.

Or rather, trying to.

I'm Chris Hemsworthing it right now bc it's too hot.

Well, vet's diagnosis was hypocalcemia, anyway, we'll know the exact levels of his calcium when the bloodwork is done.

Update: Gino is okay. He's got hypocalcemia (low calcium) which is common in male tiels apparently. Easily treatable with meds, since he's a picky asshole who won't eat leafy greens or chew on a cuttlebone.

I'm out 256 bucks but my beeb is okay.

AND I totally forgot I had an appointment tomorrow to refill my ADHD meds that make it possible to work, and I won't have the money for that, but I need to get my meds refilled, or I can't WORK, I'm going to cry, I can't even afford a 30 dollar doc visit.

I actually have no idea how much this vet visit will cost, and it's likely my bird will need bloodwork done. If anyone is feeling generous to help my old man out, I'd be immensely grateful.

His medication is one of the reasons I can't afford my HRT but considering how old he is, and how much I love him, it's worth it. He's worth it.
