I have gone for up to four hours of tattoo sessions with out a problem or a break, but today after giving blood I went over to the station for cookies and started letting loose into a garbage can. I felt so bad all day that I had to leave work early came home and slept for three hours. Its been about 12 hours now and after lots of fluids and food still feel like a train ran over me.
    Was the phlebotomist any good? I've had some that were so good, I barely felt the prick of the needle, and then I've had others that practically chewed my arm up looking for a perfectly good vein. The latter can certainly raise your stress level and maybe even cause you to feel sick.

    Maybe so, I've met a few who seemed to take a little extra delight in seeing my blood!
