Yes!  I had that happen on several readings.  I think the reason it 
happens is that although we have many capillaries under our skin I 
managed to hit a spot where either the capillaries were not there or the 
capillaries that were there in the past were broken.  Given time, I 
think those capillaries do rebuild and repair but it takes a few days.
