Default My Physical therapist and a question or two`

Hello, I need Nurse Bizi, if she knows anything about this.
I was told by my new physical therapist, I shouldn't have any blood pressure, blood draws or IV's put into my upper body from now on.

I'm leery of this, I have no clue how you would take your blood pressure in your lower body. But that I realize I probably can look up. Its so much that I'm worried I'm going to have to buy a new blood pressure machine.

The bigger thing is I'm not sure how to handle the blood draws, I have no idea where they will do this now. And I know already its bugging me.
I will not be looking it up. Because I know that there are scary stories on the net. But its a weird thought.

The biggest thing is going to be IV's, and as little as I will probably have them, I'm thinking I will not worry about that. Because I can't think of a place I want it put in other than the arm or hand.

I can't even get shots or things in the arms again, but i realize were those will go and that is okay. This is just so weird.
