Is that normal??

Man my arms hurt today! Apparently the lady drawing my blood yesterday was not the most talented of the bunch. She tried my right arm (which is my easiest arm) and she dug around in the vein until it collapsed and my arm started turning GREY from having to clench my fist so she could find the vein. Then she used my left arm and was able to draw blood. However, the blood began to pool behind the injection site and I ended up with an incredible turquoise blue lump on the inside of my elbow. My boss had me ice it and some of the swelling went down, but now I have a large lovely bruise on my arm. Geez, the things we go through to get into the Peace Corps!!! :)
