Why oh why don’t medical professionals read the notes I keep with me?! It clearly says I have small veins and the best cannula to use is a blue or pink one.
So the nurse doesn’t read my notes and clearly doesn’t look at all the scar tissue from previous cannulas on my arm and goes straight in with a green cannula, cue lots of crying, more shortness of breath and needing to peal me off the ceiling
