HospitalGlam from this morning… Some blood tests which I’m used to now, but I forgot to warn the phlebotomist about the Ehlers-Danlos and she used a large needle. This resulted in two things… A mild vaso-vagal response due to the pain (blood pressure drop/dizziness etc) and then as I was leaving I sprang a leak and gushed blood everywhere. For whatever reason connective tissue disorders can cause excessive bleeding in some cases. I have this problem with a lot of things, but as long as they stick to the small child sized needles I usually just leave with a fantastic bruise. -- source link
