She had infiltrated my graft about 6 weeks ago. Went through 2 fistula grams and another tech stuck me fine on last Monday.  This girl was tere on Wednesday last week and she poked me through the graft. My bicep looks like I have a baseball on it. It hurts still and this is Sunday.

Yes, I told her Friday I cannot allow her to EVER stick me again.   Arm really looks and feels like it is getting bigger.  Tried cold and heat ,ANYONE got any ideas on what to do now ?

Learn self canulation.

You may have to push with your MD for this as an in-center patient as it is traditionally done only by home hemo patients, but it is possible.
