This is not the arm I got blood drawn from:
Inside of my knee:
My arm does the same thing it is a reaction to the stuff they use to clean your arm off. It happens every time.
That's too funny! The same thing happened to me when I donated blood last week. The nurse rubbed the inside of my elbow for a long time with something that smelt like alcohol. Ever since then, the inside of my elbow has had a rash, constantly itchy. I suspected the alcohol, but now I see that I'm not the only one.
Thanks for the information
Had the same thing too! Also, a thyroid levels check, oddly enough, someone in my MCS group told me that I can get hydrogen peroxide wipes and refuse the alcohol wipes next time...
Did you get nauseous after the draw?... I did... Weird, and my rashes were burning red lines...
I have had alot of blood drawn and never had this problem til the last time i had it done.I wonder if they changed the company they get the alcohol swabs from or the company changed something in it.Very strange

Did you ever find out what this was?
