OK I've stopped bleeding!
Had a scare today that I just had to share with the world. I was getting through another day at work and without thinking scratched my arm. A few moments I looked down to find myself bleeding profusely. Thought it was odd but I patched myself up with the standard Alcohol and Superman band-aid routine and went on lunch. As I wrapped up lunch I noticed I was bleeding through my band-aid! I got a little scared and started getting worried. A kind woman at work (who used to be a nurse!) helped bandage me up with an ace bandage but as I was heading home I loosened it up and check and was still bleeding! At this point I decided it was time to go get this looked at. So Samantha drove me to the clinic and they took a look at me and decided I had somehow scratched a spot that was attached to a vein. They numbed my arm and cauterized the wound. Samantha's face was priceless! Needless to say I am not scratching at anything now! And now you know. And knowing is half the battle! Brian
