the worst for me was when a doctor had me put my hands on my head for five minutes. within 1 second my blood was gone.

once i started shaking, he had me stop, probably 3 minutes in. i didn't want to cause myself pain but I WAS SO DESPERATE FOR SOMEONE TO BELIEVE SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH ME.

Afterwards, I was so in need of blood that I could not bend my arms. I had to stand in the waiting room waiting for his colleague to see me. I had to move some chairs around in order to have space to stand out of the way. The receptionists started gossiping about me - I look completely healthy - young. But was in so much pain I had no other choice but to stand there for 30 minutes before even moving or doing anything with my body.
