Hi, After 12 days in I C U and with a I C D fitted. ( 6 weeks ago) My arms look as if they had been used as a dart board. Have noticed that on my right arm below the elbow there are 3 very small lumps in 2 of my veins Anyone else had this experience please?

Hello :-)

Sometimes these procedures can leave us with a few lumps that settle down in time but just to be on the safe side let your Doctor take a look as that will reassure you as well that everything is how it should be :-) x
