Default IVIGer's......I have a question.......

Since getting the infusions my nurse has used the same vein for my infusions. She's mentioned that that vein is starting to get hard so last week she used a vein in the side of my wrist (which hurt!) How often does your nurse change veins? The vein we've always used is the one in front of my elbow.....it's my best vein (which quite a few nurses have told me because they have a hard time getting my blood) Anyway......do I need to worry that we should change veins???

Ok this is off subject......but we've had 6 hummingbirds at our house for the past 6 weeks......and they left yesterday....migrated south. I'm sure they felt the tropical storm in the gulf was upon us and headed out. We've loved having them all summer. I've had 5 feeders out and have LOTS of hummingbird flowers in our yard.......anyway.....it made me sad to see they were gone.
