Hey john,

It should not effect your buttonhole. I have two botton holes for the venous needle. Sometimes i don't use one of them for 5 days and it still OK when i go to use it. The only thing is that i couldn't get the blunt needle in, and i had to use a sharp, which is not a big deal. But i would still question why they didn;t use it next time you go.

Hope all goes okay, goodluck.

Amanda

Question why they didn't use it and why they didn't tell you they didn't use it!!  Hubby would be mad as hell!!

The buttonholes will be ok as some have two sets of buttonholes and rotate between them.

However....how did you even miss it at the time that she did not use the buttonholes? ???
