Answers:
they wont let you do it if your pulse is too high, just a warning!. It's really not that bad, I do it all the time!. Just take some deep breaths before you go in and don't watch them put the needle in!. And make sure you eat before you do it and take a drink when they offer it to you, preferrably coke or juice, NOT water!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Stop thinking about it, it doesn't hurt that bad, don't think about it and don't look, the more stressed out about you get, the more it will probably hurt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
it's not a big deal at all!. just think, you'll be helping someone outWww@Answer-Health@Com
