This happens time to time. Don't worry. Can happen due to difficulty in finding the proper vein/ the technique of the person.
While needles get jammed after used once, we can't draw the conclusion that it was the reason it took 2-3 times.

Dont worry. Its nothing to be worried about. It is a common problem in adults. Due to stout muscles of young people, it is sometimes difficult to access the veins, which are used to draw blood for testing. If the blood comes after multiple attempts too, its not refused. Its acceptable and gives the results as intended
