Answer 2

U can't get away from blood test, everybody goes through it, sometimes even babies.

U'll juz be prolonging your chaos if u pull ur arm away.

Be calm. In my case, i'd rather look at the syringe to see where they'll inject it & to know when it's gonna hurt to prepare myself.

Answer 3

I would always dread blood tests, when I was a kid.

Than one day I had to take it again after years, and surprisingly it wasn't bad.

It really didn't hurt at all, Just a little prick. Don't worry be cool.

Answer 4

I just had a blood test the other day and it is not bad at ALL.  I watched, and it took only around 2 minutes. They put a band around your arm and then you will just feel a pinch for a second when they put the needle in....it doesn't even really hurt once they have it in. The only thing is u might get a bruise there afterwards and it might be a little sore. Don't be scared just relax and it will be over before you know it.

Answer 5

If you pull your arm away, you might break the needle, which will make it painful. you might get a sharp sting, but there are nurses who are very gentle, and you might not feel it as much. What you might want to do is just turn your head away from your arm, and relax, that should make it easier on you,

Answer 6

I do several everyday!  I'm diabetic, and I have one scheduled for tomorrow by my doctor!  It's just a little pin prick and then nothing!!!!!  It won't hurt!
