Medical Alert

I just found this out from my surgeon.......Dr. T.Glenn Pait......when you have blood drawn....never draw your hand into a fist.......or grab a ball........if you do then Potassium can leak out from the vain into the blood...causing the wrong test results.........I am shocked.......the people that have drawn my blood my whole life has told me to make a fist.........if they say this...don't do it! Otherwise then you are wasting time and money for the blood work. Chances are you will not get the correct results.
