That can be an anyone problem, not just behcets. Some factors of a poor blow draw are: tiny veins, obesity, and dehydration. If you find a vein that allows for good blood flow, don't hesitate to tell the nurse or medical assistant right off the bat. I've seen people get blood drawn from feet and hands.

Stay hydrated and good luck.

Yes that's very true but for me it was because of my behcets and with behcets it attacks ur vascular system such as ur viens !!

Hi sorry to hear that !!! My name is Cora I'm 18 and was diognosed with behcets a yr ago almost died due to complications to my lungs but yes I to could not get accessed by Drs life flight team nurses no one so my surgeon put a port in my chest and it works great for me cause when I get sick it happens fast and I need to be accessed quickly , so maybe you should talk to ur Drs about putting in a port !!!

Hope things work out for you
