I know he sai d next time i have to go to the hospital where they could find my veins cuz they cnt find them manually they have to use the ultra sound machine..

We're you dehydrated? I have great veins and I was dehydrated before the sleeve and my veins kept rolling. It hurt but I got it done.

My advice is to drink a lot the day before so that you are really hydrated!

Good luck to you...

OMG, I would be pissed and getting a new GI doctor.. It takes time to get that appt... YOU CAN'T TELL ME that their was no one in that build who could find a vein...What the hell would they do if you were an emergency..????? JewelJ

I had mine done on Friday. It took them two painful tries to find my vein so I am feeling really bad about your seven sticks I hope it works out at your next appointment.
