Hmmmm...... went to the doctor yesterday to get the referral for the psych eval, have that all taken care of and scheduled for the 29th. The doctor that seen me yesterday ordered blood tests as well, she said she wanted to make sure that there wasn't an underlying medical condition. The MA tried to take blood in two spots yesterday digging around in my arm and hand and couldnt get a vein. I warned him before hand that they ALWAYS have problems getting blood from me cuz my veins are very small, and they move easy. After he tried for about 20 minutes he gave me a referral to get it done at the lab. WELL I went to the lab today to get it done, told the lady the same thing, she played with the needle in my right arm not getting anything. She then switched to a butterfly needle and hit a surface vein with a syringe to get the blood. WELL, when she said she had the minimum amount needed she said piss we just blew the vein.... this was on my upper arm.... I am a human pin cushion :(
The doctor I seen yesterday started me on Celexa, I am hoping this isnt a weight gaining antidepressant, or I am gonna be depressed (no pun intended). Would be great though if it works and I can really see a brighter outlook and new levels then where I have been sitting for a long time. I know the transitional place told me after the psych test is done it does look promising to get in there. That is a huge plus.
Oh well. just wanted to do a quick update.
