Thyroid and blood test question

[miss_moose]

I have a couple of questions about the bloodtest i had a few days ago.

1. I have an underactive thyroid and had a bloodtest to check my levels again, the nurse took 2 samples, is that normal?

2. When she was taking the test, i could hear my blood kind of bubbling and squeeking. I've never notcied that before and it worried me a little. Is that normal?

Thank you

Ive only had 1 blood test, it was for thyroid too. She took 5 samples!! Lol. So id say 2 is ok, u wont miss it anyway hun so dont worry. Not sure bout the bubbling and squeeking prob jus something to do with the tube and seringe not ur actual blood xx

It depends if they were testing for other things as well. When I have bloods done they take 3 or 4 tubes each time. Perfectly normal.

The squeaking was probably the syringe making those noises and not your blood as such.
