Medical stuff
Friday I get my shot for my neck and I'm really scared. I don't have the best history with needles and on Monday when I had blood drawn I almost threw up on the nurse cause I freaked out. This is the first of 6!!! It's in my neck and they have to go down to the bone and ewwwww. I wish it had been an epidural, then it would be over in 1 at least (hopefully). I am so tempted to cancel the appt but I also can't deal with constant pain and if this fixes it it'll be worth it in the end.

@Yotenotes Hope it works out okay after all! I'm sorry it's this scary - every time I have a needle thing of any sort I expect it to be this really terrible early experience (and thankfully it never is), so I definitely empathize.
re: Medical stuff
@Leucrotta yeah I really hope I'm making a big deal if nothing. The problem is even though I know it's illogical, and the blood draw didn't even hurt, my body and brain react like it's a huge disaster. This one probably will hurt unfortunately. I hope my pain tolerance is enough to deal with it. They said some people opt to be sedated for it but with sedation it's riskier so I opted for no sedation. 😭
