You know when you tell the phlebotomist you are a hard stick and it's easier to use a butterfly in my hand and she thinks you are joking...9 sticks later...butterfly in the top of my hand worked.
SMH!! That is someone not listening!! 9? When my daughter was in a coma for all those months I had to stop allowing them to draw blood. If I heard one more phlebotomists say...I can do this I blah blah blah!! I finally said put on her chart (blood drawn my DAD ONLY). Even brought my own needles to the party!! Well kudos to you for allowing 9 sticks!! Way more than protocol allows. Hope they weren’t checking cortisol levels!
