How do i do a self infusion on my arm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What?: What are you trying to infuse? Unless you have a specific medication and a picc line (in which case, a nurse should have instructed you on how to administer the infusion), IV infusion of anything else is extremely dangerous. Please clarify.
