Well, I drew blood myself for the first time today. I got the vein the first time, but I still had to poke poor Lilly several times because I was having trouble getting the vacuum tube to get a good seal, so I'd get like 3-4 drops in the vial and then nothing. I ended up drawing it out with a regular syringe and then squirting it in the vacuum tube. Hopefully it still works. Lilly was very patient throughout the whole process.
I plan to talk to WSU about this issue and about my situation. I also talked to a couple of friends who used the sheep vaccine, and this was interesting: one guy said (very emphatically) that the CL vaccine does not make them test positive forever. If you quit vaccinating, their antibody count goes back down and they will test negative again in a year or two.
