Wow that's horrific. Sorry you had such a nightmare time of it. I'm glad you have followed it up with the surgery whereit happened. It is essential that you complain about this nurse before she doesn't to someone else. She should have read your notes and be aware of any major health concerns before doing the draw, and she certainly should have reacted immediately you started yelping at the pain. It is not acceptable to have reacted as she did with a patient with CRPS, and the surgery need to be held accountable for not educating their staff adequately.

Grrrrrrr. Sorry, but it makes me so angry when idiot medics make things even worse for us with simple procedures that should be 'routine'. Sadly there is no routine procedures for us, and your doc should have written on your notes that you a very susceptible to further pain and should be treated with great care and only paediatric needles....

I do hope this settles quickly for you. See your doc ASAP, complain, ask for treatment for this, and do everything you are able to yourself. I'll be hoping that your pain can be managed quickly. Take good care of yourself in the meantime, and good luck

Bram.
