The word VEIN can mean:

  • A blood vessel in animals and humans that returns blood to the heart
  • Similarly shaped vessels appearing in plant leaves and insect wings
  • An extension of metal ore through the surrounding rock
  • A pervading theme or subject, as in literature

The homphones are VAIN (proud or egotistic) and VANE (a weathervane, windmill arm, or bomb fin).

I just had my blood drawn and they blew my vein so does this mean that vein will disappear or no longer be a vein or will it return to being a normal vein eventually?

That means that the needle they were using to draw your blood when through the vein instead of stopping while in the vein( needed to collect the blood) and fluid leaked out around the vein. It will stop its own leak and will eventually heal itself. Ice will help the swelling for a short period.
