Hi, I haven't had my surgery yet; but I will tell you something I've learned after watching my mom & myself dealing with medical people for a countless number of years....only YOU can control how they treat you. I have hidden veins myself & before I have blood drawn I let the person know this in advance. By the time I'm done saying this, they know I am not their personal pin cushion & I will not tolerate that kind of treatment. Be firm....their job is to take care of you; make them do it well!

Don't worry about tomorrow. You'll be fine.

I actually always do tell nurses and doctors I have SERIOUSLY deep veins, and the reply I get is 'yea yea, I've been doing this for years, I know what I'm doing' but then they soon realise they've met their match and can't get to my veins and I get so frustrated I find that maternity nurses/midwives are good at finding them sometimes, but none of them here so nervous something will go wrong tomarro

Yea I try to be supper sweet when I'm in hospital or at the doctors because I usually get grumpy nurses but then they lighten up when I had samonella when I was 17 a grumpy nurse kept poking me with a needle 8 times 8 different places! Eventually I burst out crying and said 'I'm sorry I've just been though a lot today' and I think she felt bad and turned out really nice lol yea I really hope it goes well, super nervous lol thanks

Tomarro? Are you trying to type the word "TOMORROW"?

Just sayin' a dictionary may help

For someone who wants to complain about spelling, sayin' is not a word.

Had my band put in on Tuesday. Been great so far. Main issue was post op, gas pain. And to all the spel chkers out there lay off the guy.

Ask them to do a local anethesia to numb the spot before they place iv. Also tell them you are scared of needles and they are usually nicer.

Seem like you clearly used your context clues and was able to figure out what she meant. I dont see how your post was productive. Just sayin'

I was just discussing how the part most disturbing to me has to be the IV. I asked my mom would they numb the area, she said no however she is against it. So glad you were here to inform me. Thanks SpartanPower!
