Be wary of dehydration

Weather is hot and if you have bloods drawn, many vials, it can make you very ill in what seems like a split second. Be sure to drink plenty of water rehydrate and stay in the shade. You really dont even have to be working out in the sun😬just a friendly reminder so you wont get ill🤗

I called my brother in California the other day to wish him a Happy Birthday and was joking how nice our blue skies looked and he said, “well I better go I have to go sweep the sunshine off the driveway”.

Thank you! I routinely get 6 vials of blood drawn when I go in for my quarterly standing order.
