I haven't been too impressed with the general needling techniques of Japanese nurses. When I was 16, I got poked SIX times before finally getting a good vein on the back of my right hand. In Canada, it never seemed to be a problem. Today, I complained about persisting pain 30 minutes after my platelet donation began, and the nurse said I was bleeding internally and stopped the procedure to bandage me. Then, they poked me on the other arm to return some of my blood, and gave me medicine for the next few days.
Let's hope this doesn't signify anything for the coming year!

Hmmm, "FAIL" does come to mind... to permanently solve the problem, you may need to amputate at the phlebotomist's neck.
Thanks for visiting Syahid - happy new year to you too!
My arm isn't actually that bad... But I like to get sympathy points when I can;)
