Okay, I've done the nutritional lab studies..... and the plasma donation and now my willingness to sacrifice my body for cash has reached a new level. I just returned from the first weekend of a PRACS study and I think I might die. I will defintely be writing more about this but right now I think my blood pressure might be too low to actually do this post justice. [77 systolic and 52 diastolic last time it was checked] The best part is that I have three return blood draws and then a 3 day break before I do it all again. Woo Hoo! I was sure that all this confinement at their onsite location would simply be a GREAT way to catch up on reading or movie watching... what I didn't realize is that I would feel like the walking dead. Okay, I should quit complaining I will be compensated well for this. I had just hoped it would be a little more fun.

However much you're getting paid, it isn't worth it! Didn't you see this in the news?

Actually by 8 pm my blood pressure was more in the normal range [90 over 58] and I felt tons better having had a short nap and some REAL food.
