You've never met my sister, who is 3 years older than me, then. She would kick and scream at the nurses when it came time to get blood work done. It was the needles that caused the biggest stress. When she was a teen and needed to have her wisdom teeth out because they were coming in crooked they had to give her multiple valium just to calm her down enough to give her the anesthesia.Really? My kids get blood work every other year, it doesn’t bother any of them, same with shots.
Now for me I don't like needles and don't particularly like to have blood drawn (either by finger prick or by normal procedure) but I can do it and have to do it now for my health insurance on my husband's company each year.
But FWIW I think it's pretty well known that enough people are not so keen on needles. Some also don't like the idea of seeing blood, etc.
