I don't want to see another phlebotomy needle anywhere near me for as long as i can get away with.

#one fucker misses a vein. bursts another perfectly good one. gets a second dr in. misses a vein. fucking sewing machines my damn arm looking #all of it hurts like a motherfucker. #tells me 'hurrb well get another appointment in 6 month. in the meantime come in again this fking week to get shanked when our REALLY good- #- phlebotomists are here!' proceeds to abruptly leave the room and forget about me there for 10 fucking minutes. #then the others take 10 more minutes to try to figure out wtf to do with me. schedules me for an appt i can't even make. #but let's rewind to that 'REAL good' comment: are you FUCKING joking? do these ppl save the mediocre phlebotomists for the end of the day?? #are yall letting maniacs who can't find a damn vein just fucking pincushion anyone who needs blood work or is that just for the trans ppl? #so yeah. i walked home in the freezing cold & dark fucking sobbing an hour and ten minutes after what was supposed to be like a 30 min thing #needle mention #medical mention
