Best advice I can give is to look away!. I've never had an iv, so I can't liken it to that!. But what they did for me was inject the matter into the fold of my arm (upside of the elbow!.) I looked, but again, I wouldn't recommend it!. She pulled blood from my arm first (just a bit-pea size maybe!.) Then she injected this yellow nuclear whatnot into my arm!. It stings a bit, but very tolerable!. But I'm not afraid of needles!. You have to wait about 4 hours after the injection and drink a lot of water!. Make sure you urinate right before the scan!. That stuff collects in your kidneys and thats all the scan will read!.
But, yeah, just close your eyes and tough it!.
