A: My doctor says that I need a blood test. B: I can help you with that. Just have a seat and roll up your left sleeve. A: What are you taking my blood for? B: Your doctor has requested a check of your white blood count. A: What information does that give him? B: If your white blood cell count is off, it could signal an infection somewhere in your body. A: Is a blood test painful? B: I am putting a tourniquet on your arm to plump up the vein. It will only feel like a little pin prick. A: My God, that hurts! B: That was it! Thank you for coming in today.
