Question lab test timing

I am following the SWALE protocol to the letter i.e. 100 mg test cyp IM weekly, 250 IU HCG sub q on 5th and 6th day after test cyp shot, no other hormone manipulating meds until after follow up labs after 5 th IM shot of test. My question is , since I do my IM shot on Sunday mornings, does it matter what day my blood is drawn for lab work ? I have an appointment scheduled for the Friday following the 5th IM shot, I usually take the sub q HCG on Friday morning, would this effect the lab work in a negative way ?What would be the best day , assuming the above conditions, to have blood drawn for lab work ? Another question, my HCG is Novarel, 10000 IU vial, and it says only good for 30 days after reconstitution, and in that time span I would only use 2000 IU, is the rest just wasted ? I would appreciate any advice on this matter.
