Emmadolly Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Oh dear, sorry to hear about all your pain and discomfort with your vent flons (canula’s). As i am aware some of you are frequently in hospital for your own reasons. When ever i placed a canula, i always flush it with saline, and about 5 minutes later, i check to see if the site has any slight bubble under the skin. If it has i would re-site it, in another vein, as it can cause a lot of discomfort. If any of you ever see a slight bubble under the skin in future, tell the nurse to give it a flush with saline, if it does not go, demand for it to be re-sited. It can also depend on what the preference of the medic inserting the canula, some like to use the green, when it should be the orange canula used for that treatment, and some like to use the white or orange, when it should be the green needle used. So it does depend sometimes on how confident they feel with the canula, i am not kidding. You want believe some of the size needles some medics use, because they feel more comfortable in using, than actually using the correct canula in the first place, that works with either the iv drip, or the medication inserted with the syringe. You are very brave Spunky, to have a central line, do you have just the one, or do you have the traffic?. I suppose it is a better option for you to have that, than the discomfort of your canula blocking all the time. Di i hope you feel better soon, some anti-emetics therapy can cause very horrific reactions, so take it easy. And Mer i love the colour of your hair, i went red about 3 years ago from being blonde, it did not suit me at all, but it really suits you. So i changed back to blonde as soon as i could.
Pierced Musie Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Oh no. This can not be happening. I've been watching loads of the TV show Oz and now, after reading spoilers for H&A... I now want to write some hardcore prison fic. Ric/Keller crossover sounds yummy.
