February 6th, 2004
Hello. I recently had a blood test, and a few minutes afterward, the middle joint of my pinkie became swollen, numb, and almost black. After several hours, my finger was normal again. How could the blood test have caused this? There was no bruising from the needle, and the test itself wasn't unusual. I have end-stage renal disease. Could this have anything to do with it? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
