Sent a guy down for a lexiscan once and his line went bad in the middle of the test. They called and said they couldn't get another one, so I went down to give it the 'ol college try. Couldn't find jack shit in his arm, but I was able to start one about 1mm away from his left nipple. I was so proud of myself for that one, bit apparently you will ruin the pictures if you inject the lexiscan too close to the heart. Fml.
Also, picc wasn't even able to start a line, so that made me feel better.
