Is anyone sick of needles?!?!
Is anyone sick of needles? I know I am!! After I was diagnosed I had so many tests and scans etc that I have put off getting my blood test that I need to have before starting chemo until yesterday ...

Hi Louise, i didn't really have any problems with the needles, even when it took more than one attempt to find that all important vein, guess i'm a bit weird!! but it is all in the technique of the nurse, one of mine tried three times and was unsuccessful, the other nurse walked up and got it straight away. the thing i didn't like was the purple latex gloves, omg they give me nightmares, do you know how many cop shows feature them, my dentist had them last time i went too!!! that's my whinge for today, lol
take care
