I have a peramanant IV and right know I'm recieving another
IV for antibiotics and a week ago I was getting fluids(I have sepisis and a kidney infection)the permananant IV is for other things the other day the nurse was trying to find a IV site, and She stuck Me times then blamed My dark skin cause she couldn't get a vein,I didn't think that was fair, why not just use the permamant line?only the dr can touch that line i'm now stuck with a IV line in my hand too
and it's very uncomfortable,it's right at the top of my knucckles near my pointer finger on My rt. hand it's horrible I didn't come to a nursing home to get worse but its happaning slowlyI plan on tranfering when My wheelchair gets back to me I'm just worried about the same thing happa ning all over to me any advice? or questions?
