That’s what the nurse who told me about the port said to me last week Friday. LOL!!! She’s an IV nurse; she normally gets it on her first try, but someone else usually has to call her over…Friday, they had to get 4 vials of blood for all the tests to be performed and as usual, the “molasses that flows thru my veins” had to be coaxed out –
- i had to let my hand hang naturally
- the needle had to be pushed in and drawn out (not all the way) a few times,
…and after all that, she didn’t even get 3 full vials! Steups! By this time, the 1st chick was fed up (she knew i was also in pain), so she called over the IV nurse and as she walked over, she looked at me, sighed and said, “u really are a nightmare”. Of course that sparked ah set of jokes about their groaning on the Friday that they see me walk in, “oh geez, here comes Stacey – lemme pretend to be busy, someone else will get to her” etc. etc…
LOL!! Who knew that the infusions could have turned out to be happy happy times 
Are your veins hiding?
