the air pump didn't cut off when they turned it off and it swelled so much that the Velcro wasn't visible so they actually had to pop it to pull off my arm ever since I have feared them.
Hospital visits are very interesting in that manner, I flinch when they put one on me and tense till it's off.

Apparently it was a leaky valve or something, but still *shudders*

wow... that must have been really freaking tight... my kind of thing... sign me up... ill test newly fixed pumps for the area hospitals... hehehe. :D

you really shouldnt be afraid of them anymore, now the newer pumps have two ways of disconnecting and releasing air... either A shut off the pump... or B go to the cuff connectors and pull the connector from the cuff to the pump, this causes immediate air release.

so now there are safety mechanisms... but still... i shall become the pump tester :D

quick question..

how tight was it?

my arm went dark purple and my hand went blue, lost feeling in it for a week and then it hurt for a while after that.

Still reminds me of it no matter how many fail safes.

lol well at 5 it freaked me right out. Humans should be a various array of colours - purple and blue are NOT part of it.

how does this sound... multiple failsafe mechansims for safety. and total control over the pressure even while you are inside of it.
