Ever been a combative patient? Restrainer? Witness? Tech did their best for blood draw but 😬 I have NEVER got upset EVER! They're tryin to help?

[DrPepper12]

How many chances do you give the tech before you ask for another person?

Do you have "good veins"?

How is your pain tolerance?

I'm the combative patient

I'm the restrainer

I'm the witness

All of the above

Listen... Here's the tea...

When i was in 5th grade I got my head split open. I got stiches and the doctor sprayed some plastic crap on my head but it got infected anyway. He had to cut a hole on my head and put in a drain. It took 4 people to hold me down.

[DrPepper12]

OMG that's traumatic!!! Wow!!! 😮 No anesthesia?

[exitseven]

I was told no anesthesia because it was a head wound.

Thanks for the MHO😎

I'm not combative, but I am reactive. If you can't get me in one stick then just don't bother. I'm going to pass out. (Luckily my veins aren't usually hard to hit lol.)

[dustybiker2]

I've had them collapse my vein before. I was young and didn't know that could happen. I've also had a few IV's and blood draws that I hardly felt put in.
I've never been a whiner.

I think the most attempts I've had were 7 before they finally found the vein. If they’d failed a couple more times then I would’ve asked for someone else.

[DrPepper12]

Yikes! I've maxed out at 5 before she got it

[Likes2drive]

I’ve had good and bad people drawing blood and I make a lot of noise if they cause pain to me

In 2005 this girl stuck me 6 times and worked it back and forth before I slapped her out of that chair.

[DrPepper12]

Intentional or involuntary? You really hit her? 😮

[Dongie]

She couldn't find the mark to take blood, and no, I didn't, but I wanted to.

[DrPepper12]

Most won't get annoyed if you ask for another tech after 2-3 try

[Dongie]

Yeah but she was fast.

[NathanDavis]

I'm easy...

[Dongie]

... like Sunday morning.

[NathanDavis]

@Dongie which song is that

[Dongie]

Easy by the Commodores.
