I'm a hemophiliac and I give myself a shot every other day (in veins).
As weird as it may sound, I'm so used to it now that I don't feel it at all haha.
But to reduce the pain of a blood test
A) Have the turnicate on for as long as you can without cutting the circulation lol.
B) Ask the nurse to wipe the spot many times with alcahol wipes (it numbs it)
I hope it helps :]

It may hurt a little, but it wont last long and it wont hurt nearly as much as the treatment would for something left undiagnosed until it has progressed.
Here's the way I try to think about needles: our skin appears to be a solid sheet of tissue. But in reality, it is very porous. (That's how we sweat and how certain illnesses can cause you to bleed through the skin). So, when the needle enters the skin, just imagine it going through one of the billions of tiny holes (or pores) in the skin. Sort of like a needle going the cloth.

not at all, if you have a really good, experienced nurse. Just look away or something if the sight of the needle poking you is what really scares you or makes you think it hurts.
needles only hurt when they enter into the fatty layer of skin, the muscle tissues or any other part of skin, not when they enter your veins because vains don't contain any pain receptors so you don't feel anything.

I hate needles too but no, it will NOT hurt really bad. It's the idea more than any pain which is very minor. Don't watch and take deep breaths so you're relaxed. When your muscles are relaxed it actually helps it hurt less. Bring something to look at or focus on something on the wall to look at. It will never be as bad as you have built it up in your head to be. B R E A T H E ! Ahhhhh

Think of it like this; If the doctor discovers some horrible disease which can be cured, if diagnosed early, then you may save a lot more pain and suffering in the future.

I't o.k. I don't think anyone likes needles. You just have to do your best to help yourself through the procedure.
1. Drink plenty of water before hand
2. If possible lie down
3. Don't Look
4. Tell the blood drawer that you arenervous and they will do there best to ceep you calm.
5. Stay relaxed and think about something else.
6. Reward yourself for getting trough the procedure.
It does don't hurt, it's just uncomfortable. Pinch yourself on your inner elbow too see what is feels like.
You will be fine

No, your blood draw will not hurt really bad. The stick will feel like a small pinch, or less. Just don't look when they stick you and stay calm. (don't jerk when they stick you!)
Don't worry you will be perfectly fine!
Good luck and God Bless!

no, it doesn't hurt. the pain is mostly psychological, because ur expecting pain, u become paranoid over it. try pinching urself with ur other hand or sumthin 2 get ur mind off of the situation. besides, it goes by soooo fast.

Shouldn't hurt at all if your nurse knows what she's doing. The only time blood draw is painful is if the nurse misses the vein and has to fish for it...very rare, they do this all the time!
