The same happened to me. I had to have an IV put in but the nurse couldn't find the vein so I one arm I had 5 pokes And the other 2 its a good thing I don't mind needles. But the spots started to swell and itch. It looked like I was on drugs with all my pokes but never found out why they itched Ans stuff
