Hi Candybear.
Sounds agonizing! You sure have a lot of things heaping up on you. I just get bad about blood draws just because I hate needles and I just feel it's somehow unnatural to have blood taken out of your body like that. (Don't like the idea of IVs either - nightmare!) The last time I had to do a blood test - I was getting so paniced I took clonazepam and just went right away to get it over with. (I've gotten much better - originally I wouldn't go at all. Then I had to have another person there to talk for me.)

My doctor also gives me methylphenidate for ADD, but it also keeps my mind from running wild. I think that's really helped me too.

Hang in there, Candybear!
