Hey @TAB
Yeah, finding veins can be a real pain in the
Water is the best thing. When I have my monthly blood tests and stuff I knock back the water like it's going out of style (my veins refuse to cooperate these days)...which means this morning for blood tests later today for me! yay
Anyway, I hope you have a good day!

hope bloods go okay ? yes ,only afew yrs ago a dr told me I had good veins. now,itsmore consistently a struggle. see what I can do. they asked if have trouble, I said yes, so they are getting me an expert apparently lol.see what I can do to help them. the skill level of people trying to bang stuff into veins varies so much,and if get wrong person from get go they have stuffed 3 best veins before they give up and get someone else to do it , must be like 10x harder after theyalready buggered things up, ha @StuF

Bloods went well. New guy today, which is always a bit of a worry. But, despite him saying he wasn't happy with my veins, he managed to smash it first go
Good luck with yours!
