So i got some blood drawn...

and my bicep hurts and theres discoloration on my bicep and forearm. I had my blood taken a week ago yet my arm still hurts like a b*tch. Is this normal or what? I can understand it hurting but this is rediculous.

The discoloration is normal, but the pain is not. I'd call your doctor.

My mom called them and they said it was normal and to put heat on it. Its gotten a little better but there are times when it gets pretty bad.

It's normal a WEEK after the blood draw?? I'm no doctor, but it sounds like you have an infection. No small injury should be hurting for that long...

Maybe YOU should call your doctor because your mom probably left some parts out. You're 19, your mom shouldn't do something like this for you anyway.

I fainted for a few seocnds 30 mins after, threw up a couple of times over the course of the afternoon, felt weak for about 6-7 days.

When I almost died from alchohol poisoning on new years they put a lot of needles in me so my arm hurt for a week but the pain went away eventually. The needle marks are still kinda visible which is scary but it's fading slowly. :woo:
