"I have my doubts about the original blood-letter's competency."

I presented myself at opening time for blood tests

Went to Room upon calling up my ticket number and presented form to a  woman who read it and ID’d me via a series of questions.

She had difficulty locating a vein on both arms and hands, once a vein was found she pulled out three different coloured tubes and a butterfly lance and placed them in a tray. She excused me and wanted to access the computer for whatever reason unknown to me.

Then she was in the process of extraction on my left inside elbow and then said, the vein collapsed, then she said, can only try two times.  A bit of pondering between us was going on then during this time another woman came into the room for an unrelated matter to us and I suggested to her to ask this woman to try me. A little while later she accepted to do it. 

This other lady went over the request form and then looked at the tray and removed two tubes and replaced them with two different ones from storage drawers  (a conversation was going on at the same time between these two women of which I don’t know what it was about). The second lady checked out my arms and hands and immediately proceeded with extraction without hassles; all three tubes were filled - All finished. 

I left the room shocked as to see that the original test had failed and that incorrect coloured sample tubes were used; this was rectified when somebody else took over and there were no hassles....I felt strange whether or not it was fate that saved me...the intervention!

I have my doubts about the original blood-letter's competency.

It upsets me to have to go through processes that are not properly done especially in the medical field. I’ve had a few misfortunes as a result of medical incompetencies in the past.
