Needle Stick

Posted by Theodore Anspach @tjaapa, Aug 13, 2021

In 2011 a girl who was drawing blood went through the vein and into the nerve. Today I’m trying to find HELP TO STOP THE PAIN AND NERVE AND BRAIN DAMAGE.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE. TED ANSPACH

@tjaapa
I would suspect any damage done 10 years ago from a Venipuncture wound likely be permanent by now.
Haven’t you seen a doctor in since the incident and asked about it?
Are the red marks new or have they been there since 2011?
Wouldn’t hurt seeing a doctor except maybe to your wallet.
Good luck,
Jake

Hi @tjaapa
I see you've started a new discussion with your question that members have responded to in other discussions where you posted. I hope you saw those responses too.

It sounds like you would like to seek the advice of medical professionals at Mayo Clinic. To request an appointment at Mayo Clinic, please see this website: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

I really hope you find some answers from medical experts.

Thank you so much. I’m trying to find a way to have the Veterans Medical Center to send me to Mayo Clinic but at this point they say that the needle stick never happened. So I will call Mayo Clinic and pray that they will take me.

Yes I have been seeing a Doctor at the veterans Medical Center but they are saying it is not from a needle stick. I have been. I’m praying the VAMC will send me to the Mayo Clinic and they will try Stem Call treatment. Ted Anspach
