Puzzle Description:

I had my blood drawn today ... It still hurts ...

#1: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Nov 14, 2008 [SPOILER]

oh I'm so sorry :( I call those places vampires too

I HAVE to get blood drawn every other month (I produce to much blood & Iron) it sucks!
#2: Stephanie T (laalbacoronada) on Nov 14, 2008 [SPOILER]
I'm sorry Jota!

To Nancy - I'm jealous! Half the time when I go to give blood, I get turned away because my iron is too low.

Stephanie..I would gladly switch with you, I bruise easily so my arm is blue & green for ages (my daughter & my dad have the same problem as you)

Hemachromatosis, Nancy?

ouch.
I used to take some meds as a teen that required my blood to be drawn every month. It was miserable. The only plus was that they detected that I had mono...of course it was a few weeks after I had been complaining about not feeling well and the doctors didn't believe me until the blood work three weeks later. Oh well. :)

I love these small black and white puzzles. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

I had a similar issue as telly. From when I was 10 until I was about 14 I had to have blood drawn I think it was every 3 months because of meds.

They didn't catch any other diseases with me, but they had to be very careful about me passing out. :)

Great puzzle Jota, sorry about the blood test.
#8: Jota (Jota) on Nov 15, 2008 [HINT]
I'll have another test in 6 months, I'll tell you about it. I'm already dreading it.

Sorry, 6 weeks !

Another great small puzzle. Blood drawing is never fun; both my daughter and I donate platelets. At least we get to watch movies while we do so - it takes a couple of hours, and sometimes my vein collapses before they finish. But we are universal "donors" and blood is always in short supply.

At least they don't use leeches any more :)

I'm too afraid to give blood. I have issues with needles and blood and passing out. Not a lot of fun. A couple of my friends donated blood in college and the next day their arms were all bruised.

Cute puzzle - I didn't get the title until the very end, which is tough to do with such a small puzzle (or maybe I'm just stupid).
#13: Jota (Jota) on Nov 16, 2008
Thank you all for the comments!
Ed! of course you're not stupid, that was the idea behind the title, I'm proud to know it worked!
