Do you fear taking injections? When last did you have to take an injection? I had to take it today. Yesterday i got injured in my foot, today i took the tetanus injection. I have taken lots of injections earlier even inside my eyes with local anasthaecia... Can you brave the pain or afraid of taking injections?

Hey. As long as Ive remembered, Ive never been afraid of injections. But when my children were babies and had immunisation injections I would be scared for them, and wonder if they were feeling anything, and they would never cry through it either, which helped alot and gave me peace of mind, afterwards...

Even though I hate needles, I am not afraid to get injections. I have a high pain tolerance, so on most occasions I can block out what the doctor is doing. Other times it just feels like an ever so small bee sting. The last time I got an injection was my flu shot. Haven't had to have any since than.

well i'm not afraid of taking a injection in my hand or leg...but if the nurse even tries to get near my eyes with a injection i'd run out of the hospital and never come back :)
