[QUOTE="Fauna, post: 2692570, member: 587285"] I've been trying to fight the response by using a blood pressure cuff, it makes me have the same fear and when controlling it myself I find the fear of it a little. Also simulating the blood draw by putting my arm in a position similar to the one I have to be in during the blood draw makes me have a similar feeling. Tears just flow to my eyes instantly, so at least I know that I can get used to the feeling by doing something at home which is fantastic. I'll have to consult with my nurse about the things you mentioned for sure, thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate them! [/QUOTE]
