Have you ever felt faint just hearing the word 'blood'? You're not alone. Join me, Tracy Wallace, as I recount my journey from childhood fainting episodes to becoming an adult who can tolerate blood draws—almost. I’ll share how my husband played a crucial role in desensitizing me, and how I went from feeling woozy at just the thought of blood in high school biology class to managing blood draws sitting upright. Just like a grownup! We'll also get into the nitty-gritty of "shy veins" and whether they really roll away from the needle or if that's just a myth.
Laugh along with my embarrassing stories and gain some tips for your own squeamish moments. Whether you're someone who needs to distract yourself or you've heard conflicting information about tricky veins, this episode aims to make you feel less isolated in your struggles with medical procedures. If you’ve ever felt unprepared for life's little challenges, tune in for a relatable and humorous discussion on navigating adulthood with a bit of grace and a lot of laughs.
