[quote=Anonymous]Pretty much daily past day 5 or 6 of the cycle. At SGF K St. I always had Alexis (I think) do my blood draws because I have bad veins, am prone to fainting and she's excellent at getting it one on the first try. After the 2nd cycle I got it down to where I chugged water as soon as I woke up and that was the key to avoiding multiple attempts (which was why I was fainting). On the flip side... getting an IV started after no fluids past midnight for an egg retrieval was pretty awful. During the last round the person doing it tried 5 times and didn't think she was going to get it started... i was covered in bruises and crying when it was over. But it's one time... I think the guy named Steve was better at it and got it started on the first try once.[/quote]
