Making a fist makes the vein stand out better - easier to take a sample. But if your veins happen to stick out, it's not needed, especially if someone's skilled at drawing blood. Still, few doctors draw blood themselves & then run it to the lab themselves. I've never heard of it but that doesn't mean some don't do such.
