[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 794476, member: 88961"] I don't know what the services are like where you live, but I can use my surgery, or cottage hospital, with a wait involved, or I can drive to the nearest large hospital (30 mile round trip), where there is a walk-in blood test unit. It is a little known service I discovered when I needed something done before it could be achieved locally. It could be worth making enquiries. As my tests are usually fasting, I get up and out, and am usually first in the queue at the test centre. My blood is taken at 8am, on the nail (as the phlebotomists understand fasting tests, and they're usually upbeat and chatty as they haven't been ground down by what must feel like 10,000 other vials of blood during their day.
