They busted my good arm
About two weeks ago I donated plasma and I was lucky enough to get a person that had never stuck someone. Yay, lucky me.
Long story short, he missed the vein and his trainer had to fix it. When everything was done, I got bandaged up and went on my way. After about 3 hours when i took the bandage off, I had a huge bruise near the donation site as well as a large lump that was pretty painful to the touch.
After a few hours the lump went down but the pain was still there. As the week went on my forearm started to get more and more painful. The bruise had stayed the same consistency and after 2 weeks hasnt gotten any smaller or lighter.
Then on Saturday a large bruise started to form on my forearm in one of the areas where I was experiencing pain. It seems weird that 2 weeks after I donated with this arm i would start to bruise. Maybe i am bleeding all over inside my arm. I dont know. The donation center just said to ice it. We shall see what the future holds and if I will have two arms still. Hopefully I do because i wont be able to take pictures very good with just one hand.
