Healthy Blogger: Blood Test

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

I wish to write this post weeks ago but too busy. I get married for 5 years but never do blood test before. What happen if got serious sickness pass on next generation? Too dangerous.

As a healthy blogger, blood test shouldn’t skip from our schedule once a year. My wife and I decided to do blood test years ago but scared. Until last 2 weeks, we really take serious on this matter and head towards BP Healthcare Laboratory.

Blood Test Experience

We choose BP Healthcare Lab due to 2 reasons: Have doctor in the lab to explain test results and looks more professional. This is first time blood test in my life. I really scare the needle poke into my arm to draw blood.

I heard it is like ant bite, but is terror to see my blood come out from body into the tube. I decided to not see the draw blood process. Fortunately, the nurse complete the whole process within seconds and set me free. Huh~

Draw blood is easier for thin man, blood nerve more obvious. My friend who is fatter take 2-3 pokes before draw blood successfully. Perhaps the cholesterol is too thick to cover the nerve?

Body Check Up

We not only do blood test. We actually took blood test + cancer markers + lung/heart function + ultra sound. Total of $400 bucks one person. Two for $800 bucks. We hope this full check help to diagnose more details.

My wife and my blood separate into 3 test tubes.
