Hurricane2103 OP t1_jdyt7po wrote

It is not from drug use! I donated plasma for the first time a few days ago and they blew the vein on this arm

this happened to me but with no follow up from the nurse except a "oops" when she missed and then sending me home with a bruise that eventually covered my entire elbow, i was absolutely traumatized and refuse to donate blood again

Looks like you blew out a vein when you shot up.

I would like give you the benefit of the doubt, but if I knew you personally and saw that more than once, I would insist that you take drug test right in front of me, meaning I watch you piss, in order to buy you aren't using.

Yeah that’s completely fair I should’ve thought about that. Idk if I should add the paperwork from the day since it has personal info. I’ve never even smoked cigarettes lol

You do not need to explain this to...anyone. The person you replied to has a screw loose. Just ignore that idiot.

I appreciate that! I donate blood as frequently as I can because I have Oneg but I was curious about plasma.

100% this. OP is saving lives, the other commenter just destroys them.

No this is just a gross person pushing a fetish on you without consent. Ignore them. You don't have to prove anything to anyone.

I haven't smoked before, but I have snorted opiates.

This makes people saying I never even smoked have way less weight to me.

Look, good on you if you donated plasma, even better if you donate blood.

And if you are using, I hope you can get one of the nice $10,000.00 detoxes that make you feel good while quitting, not the cheaper ones that make you suffer through withdrawal.

For the OP, it does look like they poked too many times or missed at the donation center and caused a hematoma. It's happened to me plenty times from my donating. Also, good on ya for donating. Keep it up! 👍

Thank you! She did move it around a bit so probably was that. My right arm (the one they actually got the plasma from) looks perfectly fine

I'm not going to accuse you of using. If you were using we'd see repeated evidence.

My first instinct would be to grasp your arm and press with my thumb while looking you in the eye for your reaction to the sensation. TBH, that'd be my compulsion is that was on my arm, too (minus the eye-looking part).

Good on you for donating plasma! Don't let any smooth-brain or pervert detract from that.
