Frank Lamb Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Becky,what SUPER GREAT news.Especially now that you don't have to worry all thru the holidays. How did you manage the one stick thing??I sure would like to know how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 Okay, this is how the one-stick thing works: I hate needles. The techs always insist that "they can do it" when I request a nurse to set the IV. Three to five blown veins later, they call in the nurse I requested in the first place... THIS time, I spoke to my itty-bitty husband before I went in and told him that I really didn't want to be a pin cushion for the radiology department. They called my name, he stood up to go with me and a nurse who was bigger than me told him to sit down. Full waiting room, I said, "No, he's coming in with me" (he usually does for the needle part because they are just so incompetent). The nurse happened to be in the room who had been called in the last time while I was a bruised and bloodied mess - she didn't even let the tech try! It wasn't a perfect stick, there was fishing involved (and that flippin' hurts), but it WAS only one vein and it wasn't "blown"... So, Frank, just get an itty-bitty husband like mine and you'll get a one-stick day every now and then. (Mark is 6'3" and built like a Mac truck...he looks scary but is a real teddy bear. I'm the blonde that looks like a push-over and totally sweet...LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
