After you donate blood you are supposed to re-hydrate on fluids...it doesn't
seem to work for me...I still end up urinating a lot?
In my case, it's usually the other problem: forgetting to hydrate
BEFORE a blood draw! As I primarily drink tea, this tends to
leave me less hydrated than if I drank *water* (tea is a diuretic).
Couple that with the occasional (crap! I can never get the spelling
right on that word!) incompetent phlebotomist that likes to "go
fishing" for a vein and it can make for a really unpleasant experience!
And, if the MD opts for a blood test on the spur of the moment, rushing
off to the water fountain just doesn't work fast enough to spare you
the discomfort of that "fishing expedition"! :
[OTOH, I gotta give these folks credit -- no way in hell I'd be comfortable
sticking a needle in someone else's arm... WHILE they are watching!!]
