Afraid Of Hospitals: How Medical Test And Stuff Are Done by Tobitrueman(op): 10:16pm On Sep 26, 2016
I'm not a big fan of doctors but no doubt appreciate their job.
Going to the hospital for anything at all, be it medical attention or just visitation, has been a childhood fear and that explains why I don't do the hospital thing. But after learning the importance of undergoing medical checkup, test and such like, as a novice, inquisitive questions popped up.
Now, to the doctors and people that are familiar with how things are done in the hospital, please:

1. How are medical test done e.g, blood test, blood group test, high blood sugar, e.t.c

2. And how much do they charge for any test? E.t.c

A syringe is inserted into your vein by a nurse or phlebotomist and a blood sample is taken for full blood analysis.. all the stuff you mentioned can be checked with the blood collected.. Is not as scary as it might sound, you will be surprised..

I don't know how much, i live and work in a country where healthcare is free..Good luck..
