/health updates: My veins have always been hard to find, but it's gotten worse lately. They had to draw blood from my hand this time.


๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
It was all for the best, though; met my awesome new GP and he got me all the referrals I need

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
Getting me set up again to start getting the ball rolling on getting my surgery planned

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
So at least I'm coming out of the year on a good note medically of nothing else

Megan
oh man, I know that feel (although somehow my veins have become easier to find over the years)

Megan
but my life used to be "JUST DRAW IT FROM MY HAND" "no I'm gonna poke you 20 times because I'm totally more competent than every other phlebotomist!"

stares down at my pale ass arms

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
lol yeah the one today tried my arm once and then was like eff this I'll do your hand

๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ค๐ฃ๐ฏ๐ค
yeah i can't relate i could navigate my way to route 66 with this blue roadmap

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
I think I have tiny veins or something. I used to give blood and they always shredded my arm stabbing through veins and whatnot

Megan
bruh have you seen my arms that's not the problem

Megan
haha I have tiny-ass veins

Megan
(or used to)

Megan
my mom likes to tell the story of how they had to draw blood from my forehead when I was a baby because they could not find anywhere else to do it

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
LOL

๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ค๐ฃ๐ฏ๐ค
OH i just figured my arms being obvious was part and parcel of any donation phlebotomist being like "dang you bleed really quickly"

Megan
looool

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
now I'm just imaging you with a big bald veiny head and a needle poking out of it

Megan
honestly that is probably not inaccurate

๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ค๐ฃ๐ฏ๐ค
but yay finally getting your referrals
