New here, too.

I never knew a simply blood test could be so drastic.

I have a blood disorder so I am always getting stuck. When this happened it was electric shock down the arm to thumb.

I also have some questions:

1. When the shock hit was it horrific or mild, scale of 1-10?
2. How long was it before you knew it was not going away?
3. Can that arm ever be given for blood draws again? Or will another jab make it worse?

I guess I am where everyone starts out. I am pretty depressed bcause like I said I have a blood problem and I have not had blood taken since. I am terrified. If they mess up the other arm, I won't have anymore left to give for them to monitor blood levels.

I am in touch with lab and will not file a suit based on wheat I read here- seems exhausting and expensive and I am already on Diability. So I am very depressed over allthis!!

Thank you to whoever started this thread and thank you to those who are sharing.
