Yes it is mandatory. Do check it yourself that a fresh needle is inserted when you take a blood test.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have PCOD, high blood pressure, migraine, arthritis and sleep apnea. My blood report shows very high CRP levels. Recently I have developed many warts all over my body from face to legs. While sleeping I sometimes stop breathing and wake up to catch my breath. Which doctor should I consult, orthopedic, general physician, gynecologist, or someone else. I live in Noida. Please help and guide me?
