Unhappy getting worse not better

Geez, 3rd test and glucose went up to 395 instead of down. I know stress can boost the numbers, and we are all stressed.

I have to massage the ear for a while before, to warm up the vein, so can't use ice. It is such a tiny poke, but in a sensitive area. I saw a hint to put a flashlight up to the outside of the ear to see where the vein is, and that helps. Still with a jumpy girl with furry ears, it is hard. I don't feel like trying the other sites, like lips, or under foot pads; just have to stick to it and get through this day.

I'd never make a vet tech, I feel like I could throw up right now.
