Thanks for your reply, BGnR.
I did try the "side of the finger tip" but that hurt too much for me.
Is there a difference in blood taken from other parts of the body?
I thought that my arm might be less sensitive or perhaps my tush?
Yep, I'm a wuss when it comes to pain and now, based on the pain-related MRI that I just had, it looks like I'm in for a major issue involving surgery (might lose control of arms, legs, bowels…etc).
I'll probably post separately when I get more info and then ask for input, but for now I'm just depressed and very scared.
I'm afraid that at 70 my "use by" date may have expired.
