Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 They told me to do whatever was normal for me. At that time I was not awake and taking meds before 8:00 so I didn't take them before the blood draw.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Thank you, Carol. I was able to get in touch with Theresa and she told me the same :-). This was my first blood test on Armour (I held off on the Omacor and Cortisol b/c of fasting..I take both with my breakfast). My blood draw was WONDERFUL! The guy who did it didn't balk when I requested a butterfly and I didn't even feel a thing! I actually watched 3 of the 4 vials fill, too. :-) (I have had horrendous experiences with being stuck) I just wish CPL was a main lab with our insurance. I think we're supposed to go to Quest or LabCorp... > > > They told me to do whatever was normal for me.
