I think it was for the DNA test for the mastocytosis gene mutation.<br /><br />Hope you have a great Thursday! Not sure if you have a Thanksgiving in Canada...WinnyNinny PooPoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237156887425609665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814235039372544528.post-66408920667873318802010-11-24T20:18:33.851-06:002010-11-24T20:18:33.851-06:00WNPP - for the blood tests.

I'm guessing that the serum tests were for the immunology work, but they forgot to get the other kind of sample (usually the tube has a purple or blue top, and the tech mixes it immediately after taking it). <br /><br />The "whole blood" sample is just one with an anticoagulant in it so that it can go through a different kind of machine for testing, such as hemoglobin or PT/PTT blood clotting tests, that sort of thing. When I worked in the lab it happened all the time. Either the tech would forget one particular tube, or the doc would call and order something later on that we hadn't drawn a sample for.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03407981987874669303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814235039372544528.post-49538209611378771302010-11-24T12:54:44.632-06:002010-11-24T12:54:44.632-06:00Just Me: Hoping it won't either.

(or in the case of red Lucy - not walkin toys!) I know I am heading down the same road you have already gone down, and you make me feel like I can maybe remain myself even when I start sporting some extra walking assistance. I am sorry that your weakness has put you in the place where Lucy is your primary steed. My weakness is what is starting to scare me, as it is progressing rather quickly. Is that how yours did?? I don't want to skip right to the Lucy stage, as I am really wanting a tricked out walker. Happy Thanksgiving dear one!!! don't wear yourself and Lucy out on Black Friday deals and cooking the Turkey on Turkey day!!<br /><br />MP: In the darkness of the night I decided full steam ahead and torpedos be damned I'm eating some of that HaM regardless!!! I went out and found a special country cured hanging ham just for Thanksgiving and by golly I'm having a bite of that!<br /><br />My list of allergies is sooooo long I carry a list with me for emergency room purposes AND I have a medic-alert bracelet that just says "multiple allergies" after anaphylaxis, with my number and their phone number to call. I don't think it is ever going to get shorter. The only time I am a really big baby about it is the holidays because #1) there is generally something I would like to eat I can't #2) using an epipen at a family dinner kind of ruins it for everybody else....<br /><br />Hope you have a great turkey day too!!!WinnyNinny PooPoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237156887425609665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814235039372544528.post-10635940537360404652010-11-24T04:55:18.425-06:002010-11-24T04:55:18.425-06:00Good luck with your EMG today.

It's tough managing what you can take and can't take any longer especially if it grows all of the time.MigrainePuppethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678393922494152377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814235039372544528.post-62319527355288725702010-11-24T00:49:23.559-06:002010-11-24T00:49:23.559-06:00Good luck with the EMG tomorrow.

I have one of those fancy roll around walkers. I have a cane, a walker, and a electric chair. Lately the chair has been the thing I have used when out in stores, etc. her name is Lucy, as she is red. I have been so weak, and it's been hard to walk.<br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving!!<br /><br />God Bless~<br />Debbie JeanDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01772406743462324097noreply@blogger.com
