| Getting ready for the big collection! |
 |
| Putting it on ice... |
So Sunday morning began my 24 hour collection. Basically I had to stay close to my pee jug and cooler for 24 hours so that every time I needed to, um, go.... I would be near my supplies to collect it. So a cooler full of ice and my jug sat ready and waiting in my bathroom at home. I did take my jug on a brief tour of town and a visit to my parent's house...

| Getting weighed |
24 hours later it was time to take my jug to the hospital and turn it in. While there I had to get weighed, measured and my blood drawn. The nurse was awesome - best blood draw EVER! I did not even feel the needle go in! Then I was sent down to the ER to get my blood pressure taken.

| Heading to the ER |
At the ER the nurse was nice enough to take an interactive picture of me getting my blood pressure taken. So this part of the testing is over. On Wednesday I get to head back to the lab for my glucose tests. Today's visit was short, sweet and totally pain free!
