      I've only experienced and heard of reactions due to temperature variations.

      Don't think I've ever experienced that. Usually have trouble because my viens are tiny so they have try multiple to get blood, but in my last blood test I had no complications at all. I was pleasantly surprised

      I haven’t had any blood drawn since the Raynuads developed. I didn’t know the discoloration could happen during blood draw.

        @JustRachelle yea when they put the rubber around your arm it restricts your blood flow and I normally turn purple or like corpse colored from it, been diagnosed since I was like 11 so I've had plenty of experience lol
