We used common sense, my wife fasted from day before, has a precaution.
My wife asked for the blood test, it was not the doctor (woman) who suggested the blood test, the doctor said if you think
you need a blood test, you can have one, good job my wife asked for it.

But what was the blood test for if he - she didn’t know what’s was wrong with her.You can’t have a blood test without a diagnosis.

It's disgusting the way your wife was treated ELK. As far as the receptionists go, well, they seem to think that they are the doctors these days and in my opinion they've been given too much power and it's gone to their head. I know that not all receptionists are like this but in my recent experiences they've thought that they knew more than the doctor did. The world has gone mad.
