And us poor nurses get pulled up when someone has a bruise on their arm as happened in my surgery and I`ve to be supervised tomorrow cos a couple of patients have complained.It can be hard at times for both nurses and patients -some people just won`t part with their blood !!! Hot arms and drink at least 4 glassess of water first- |

The nurses that came tried putting a needle in and took it out and it was bent -she said look what your vein has done to the needle - she said we dont see that very often - well how I did not faint I dont know -I dont need to see a bent needle with me blood on it. |

lol Tina..... I don't register with those new fangled BP machines either.... and they often have a problem with the old style as well.... it tends to be very faint, but very high (without meds, that is). |

I have the same probs. Dr told me to go into surgery 15 mins earlier - I have to put my hands in a bowl of hot water -so he can take blood from hands!!!!! |

when I suffered one of my numerous miscarriages and had lost a lot of blood, it made matters worse - they went up and down each arm, and every hole they made spurted blood when they tied the rubber band round for the next - looked like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre - trying the last one on my arms she said, if we don't get it this time we'll have to start on your feet!!! thankfully she was successful on the last arm shot!! |

same with me Daff - best of luck to the phlebotomist - I always look at them with a certain degree of pity when they're faced with me - no veins to speak of!! |
