No, I don't know what your point was, nor even whether you agree or not.fresh_42 said:
You have proven your own statement.WWGD said:
Ah, sorry, I bet self-reference. It reminds me of A bizarre meta- exchange in which someone claimed " There are no true general statements", to which other party replied " That is a general statement". Then it was adjusted to: " Only true general statement is that there are no general ones". Then he was asked to show the latter was consistent.fresh_42 said:

Didn't know that... I've used 3 different fingers now and got it to like 500ul but it's so clotted that I doubt they're going to be able to use it. Oh well I'll just send it off and hope for the bestBillTre said:

Maybe next time I'll just ask somebody to punch me in the face and wait for the nosebleed
I don't know who "they" or "it" is, but I've never gotten more than a drop or two of blood from a lancet finger stick on my Pts. If you want 20 drops, you need to do a small gauge IV stick, IMO. I can fly over and take care of that if you want, but you'll have to pay for my flight and beers. Probably cheaper for you to go to your local health lab...ergospherical said:Yeah it said to wipe it with antiseptic, leave it to dry then use the lancet to make a pin prick and "milk" 20 or so drops into the tube. I did everything they said, like take a shower beforehand & hold a cup of tea but it didn't work
That's a shout...
That increases the yield to 2-3 drops. Don't ask me how I know this please...fresh_42 said:
