I got my blood drawn for testing today. I don't think a lot was taken, but we have fly out in like 4 hours. Is this going to cause complications? I still feel a tad weird, but I'm going to eat more, and drink more water.

I'm checking other sources as well, but if Claudia or anyone else knows...

You are going to die!

If you don't have enough blood in your system when you get to a high altitude, the air in your veins explodes. You just *pop*.

Ok, no, I don't know, it sounds like you'll be fine. Drink electrolytes and don't drink any booze.

They don't tend to take much for testing. You'll be fine.

Yeah, electrolytes. It's got what plants crave.

Not enough to matter, unless you have a condition besides that.
