Holy moly 18 viles of blood....
is what they take when you go for the recurrent m/c panel 
Luckily I didnt faint but it was scary!! I dont have a problem with needles at all but the fear of fainting made me very nervous. I was fine though. Thankfully DH took off at the last minute and went with me.
My post-op appt went well; no complications from the d&c and now I go back in 2 weeks to get the results of todays blood work. Tomorrow I have an appt with Dr. Braverman so at least Im being pro-active.
I hope I get some good news soon!!

Wow 18 vials!!! I think I would pass out!
I'm glad to hear everything went well with post-op and there were no complications with anything. Do you see your OB to go over the blood work or Dr. Braverman? Hopefully soon you can have some answers.
Keep us posted about tomorrow. I have been thinking of you!

Wow! Glad it was an uneventful blood draw...
Be sure to get the records for this blood test when it's available so Dr. B doesn't have to repeat all of that!

Good luck on the bloodwork. I had the same testing done. They really take 18 viles. Its crazy to think how much blood it is. DH only had to get 2 viles.
GOOD LUCK!!!

YIKES... you are brave. I opted to do the pathology test after my DNC. I don't even know about this test...

EEEK! I just did 22 vials yesterday. 13 of them were actually the small blue ones. But, I still passed out-twice. Believe it or not, it was the worst I've ever passed out too. Very Scary. My vein collapsed as well but thank God they were able to get everything they needed! Next time, I'll have to split up the testing into three. Good Luck with your test results-hopefully you'll find some answers
