I am a world-class weenie when it comes to letting people stick needles into me. My subconscious mind firmly believes that if God had wanted us to have direct access to our bloodstreams, He would have equipped our skin with small, clearly marked doors.

More excuses for not posting: Fainting from a TB test, celebrating Christmas Break with good friends, being tired from said celebrating, enjoying time with The Boy.
So I might be a Trypanophobic...I'm getting sort of tired of fainting when a needle gets NEAR me...this is what internet research and your mother will do to you.
I can add this to
Claustrophobia
Cardiac Neurosis (Severe anxiety attacks)
Clinical Depression
So I'm seeing the Doc when I go home to see what he says. If he puts a needle anywhere near me to prove any points, I will punch him in the groin.

I absolutely hate needles.
I hate how they tell you to look away because that really doesn't help. I still know that it's there, just waiting to be poked into my arm. I hate that feeling.
I use to hate needles too...but when I got my flu shot I just didn't look.
TB tests are NOT fun though...I hate having to take them. I always worry they will come back positive LOL. Of course I worry about catching all kinds of weird diseases...Its hard for me to watch Grey's Anatomy...I love it but I always worry I have what they have. LOL.
