After trying many, many times she gave up and decided to try it again tomorrow.

I've had this nurse for over 4 years and she is usually a one stick wonder but for some reason today my veins just didn't cooperate with her.

Never had that happen before. My body is telling me that it's time for my IVIG but luckily I can hold off another day.

All I can say is My veins better cooperate tomorrow. I can't take many more sticks. I feel like a human pin cushion right now!
I just had a port put in. Now my veins just relax when I have my IVIG.
