....eeehhny-way... I haven't been asked to "prime" the vein, prior to
blood testing/donation for nearly 20 years. In fact, I've been told
*not* to do so, since about 1990. Haven't been able to donate blood
since my diagnosis with RA in 1999 <sigh>. Not because of treatment,
but rather because the blood bank here says it's one of the
disapproved diseases for blood donation (along with Hep C, HIV, and
being in Turkey between 75 and 85 et al).

Smokie Darling (Annie) - what? RA's contagious now?

Hi Annie,,, Don't feel bad,,, I have not been able to give blood for 20
years.
