Re: Do you donate blood?

(Anonymous) 2018-05-30 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
I get that, but it's still frustrating. I'm one of the extreme cases and I have regular blood draws. I try to warn people that I will likely bleed and bruise a lot and that inserting and withdrawing should be done very slowly to limit tearing. I have my treatment card out that specifies this if they feel the need to check that I'm not full of shit. Nope. They still yank and I end up with gigantic bruises. I know I look 20 but my veins are 90. I won't even let some of them touch me now. The ones who listen are a fucking godsend. I have a bruise this week about the size of a bottle cap and that is a good week for me. My IM injection site has a bruise the size of my fist, and the needle was tiny.

Funnily enough I have no phobia of needles. It's really annoying when I try to give people information and they brush it off as anxiety. I used to have a script that meant I had daily injections at home and I never had a problem doing them. I don't need anyone to tell me to look away, I just need people to acknowledge that they understand what I am saying.
