I have had about 15 pic lines and the certain veins that they go in (underside of the bicep and the outside vein on the crease of your elbow) have developed so much scar tissue that it is hard to get a pic line in. I don't mind the sticks becasue I am pretty much used to it but when you tell the nurse where to stick and she wants to stick some other place becasue it is "easier" or "convenieng" and the vein blows right away is when I get pissed off. Plus since there are only a few trained individuals in the hospital that can put in a pic line it takes longer especially since it also needs a doctors approval.
