We (my hands and I) were at the hospital lab for blood work this morning. For years having blood drawn has been the worst part of just about any medical procedure for me. My veins were literally buried in the fat of my arms. Polk/jab/Polk again with no luck- finally ending in being told, "Well, we'll just have to go in at your hand." My poor, torchered hands, bruised and brutalized beyond recognition each and every time. NOT TODAY!! In at my arm, and a one Polk, painless wonder! THANK YOU, WLS!
