    @Amy22 Yeah it's definitely the feeling, since it was a city hospital rather than my local GP it did feel a lot more "aggressive too" and it just feels "claustrophobic" even though I don't really get that. My arms are fairly thin (just always have been) so maybe that doesn't help - I'm often left with a huge thick red band from where it's been!

    Hate needles as well but I think it's partially because my dad's side of the family has always just been pretty phobic surrounding medical stuff but it means we have numbing cream in the house so I used that for my first blood test and it worked well. My "hack" was listening to "...Ready For it" by Taylor Swift but I skipped the intro and played it from when she starts singing because it's kind of more "rap" but my reasoning is I don't have to hear the doctors saying "3,2,1..." or anything like that. I thought they were going to take more than they did and it all went much better than I thought but it's the sort of thing that doesn't help to hear and you can't believe until it's over.

    Hope you’re all doing alright. I saw this a few mins ago and didn’t realise how tense I was 😳 so thought I’d share the little reminder here. Just had a good old shake and feel a million times better 😂
