Re: Blood test

Don't ever call yourself "lame". This is new territory and it is the professionals jobs to explain things to you. But it might be good to keep a notebook with you and write down your questions and replies. And get copies of everything. You are entitled to those. And, again, there might be alot of reasons for the lab results and they may be resolved next time the tests are run. Keep the faith.
