I was in the hospital, one arm in a splint, the other with an IV and they decided they would draw a blood sample out of the bottom of my foot. I objected to that ans they took it out of the back of a hand.

But what ever happened to the air gun injectors? I'm pretty fearless on needles in my arms or butt. But I also give blood every 12 - 15 weeks. When they started pricking the ear, I objected and had them do a finger.

Just don't look at the needle if it bothers you. Most technicians are good enough you barely feel it.
