    I did try once, but got faint and they had to stop. I really should have another go. Nurses have commented about the stress/flow thing during blood tests before, and it does make sense - your body would be preserving its resources.

    If the needle stick pain bothers your wife, I’ve found Emla cream handy to numb the spot. Having one less thing to stress over makes it a little easier for me, at least.
