that I just can't hardly keep up to do personals! I feel terrible if someone is left out! Please believe me when I say that I am really following all stories and love the updates. Don't feel bad about not mentioning me in your personals since I've missed two days of doing them myself.
Have a quick question since we are talking about questionable actions.. here's what happened to me a couple of days ago.
I am really hard to get blood out of. The nurse who tried *without success* was getting pretty frustrated. She turned around from the counter and I noticed that her finger was bleeding pretty good.
"Did you poke yourself?" I asked, shocked at seeing her finger bleeding so badly.
"No, it's a paper cut," she replied... and started to get a bandaid from the drawer (the band-aids they put on your needle poke afterwards). I noticed that she had no gloves on (none of the nurses do) and she had blood on both fingers from trying to clean the cut (with gauze) and placing the bandaid.
I watched as she finished with the task, and then started to proceed with a second attempt at getting my blood draw... WITHOUT WASHING HER HANDS. I knew she was going to use her fingers to poke around my arm to find my vein, and I knew she hadn't washed her hands that had fresh blood on them. I also knew that needle was going to go right through those blood cells and into my arm.
I asked her if someone else, with more experience, might want to do the draw, because the little room for blood draws is right next to a very full and very quiet waiting room. I didn't want to question her in front of everyone.
The more I think about it, the more ticked off I am. I mean, I KNOW I don't have any diseases - we were literally tested up the yin-yang.. but I don't know anything about her. She could be a carrier of anything for all I know.
Should I tell the doctor?
Oh, by the way.. nothing to report here except that I spent six hours yesterday and today in a ceramics studio painting, and that my belly is bloated and my back is hurting! Another ultrasound/bloodwork tomorrow morning and will report then.
Many hugs, sistas!
