Title: Removing Fear From Needles
Post by: Chicken Little on June 20, 2007, 02:55:14 PM

Anyone else see this on the news?  http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=edell&id=5399674 - watch the video. 

Something tells me they won't be showing up in dialysis units anytime soon ::), but I sure hope the hosptial has that light next time I need an IV.   They had to put it in my foot last time I had surgery.   :'(

my neph told me about this. he wants the center to get one. he has several patients, including me who don't always get quality dialysis because of problems in placing needles. i'm not holding my breath however.
