Luco, that could be a vasovagal reaction to having blood drawn. Basically a sudden drop in your blood pressure that's more of a psychological reaction. That happens to me, too, where I usually feel all shaky and sick afterward. I agree that we should get a lollipop!

I spent much of the last 24 hours freaking out that the pelvic ultrasound I had yesterday found something bad, like cancer. I really hope my doctor gets back to me today. I guess I'll try calling if I don't hear something by mid-afternoon. I hope she's not on vacation. I have a ton of work to do today but just want to curl up in a ball. And wish I could talk to MC--sent him an "I'm freaking out--any suggestions on how to chill?" text yesterday evening, but don't even know if he's read it. T's on vacation, so I don't want to bother her. And H hasn't been acting particularly supportive, snapping at me about something minor this morning... In other words, I might be bugging the couch a bit today.
