A member asked:
I had a blood draw a couple hours ago. i have arm pain and stiffness, is that typical? is naseau, dizziness also common or would that just be anxiety?

Anxiety: Sounds like anxiety. You may be a little sore for a few hours at the puncture site. Give it some time and it will go away.

Phlebotoby: If the area near the puncture is red or hard or if there is a hard cord going towards your body that may be a problem. It it is just sore it will go away. The dizziness and nausea is not part of the blood draw and may just be as you suggest anxiety.
