Dear Mermaid,

Can you tell us more about the procedure that your doctor is proposing? I know why you would not want an IV in your affected hand, I won't let my doctors touch me with a needle any where on the left side of my body. I'd like to try to understand what it is that is being offered to you as an alternate, your doctor may be offering something that may be more beneficial for you?
