    No, I'm not scared of needles
    I’m not scared of needles even tho they do hurt. But then again, I tend not to look at them while they are going in lol

    I am not at all scared of needles. My husband was and insisted on looking whenever he had an injection.
    I never look so never get nervous or scared of them.

    Thanks everyone for sharing their thoughts and experiences :) Mine went completely fine as expected, despite me refusing to go in at one point beforehand :D

    I spent three weeks in hospital in March and had to have two infusions, one in each arm for over 10hrs at a time every day. Then for the last 6months I have been giving weekly blood samples and getting a three weekly infusion that last 1hr at a time. I had my first Covid jab in January, my second in March and get a yearly flu jab. Next one in a few days, also my third Covid jab very soon. So I am not afraid of needles. They are here to help us after all. 
    Good luck with yours @Tori_Scope. And well done for getting it. ?
