My biggest fear has been needles since I was 13.
Had a bodyboarding incident, picked up a nasty bacterial infection from the waters in Newport Beach. Within hours my body was covered with lil chicken pox looking marks. Went into the emergency room to get looked at.
Had a blood test done.
Nurse comes back 30 minutes later... sorry we forgot to run one of the necessary tests on your blood.
Had another blood test done.
Different nurse comes back, we mislabeled your blood, and need to run another round to be sure we have correct results for you.
Had 3rd blood test done.
Doctor walks back, " Sorry Mik, I know you are gonna want to punch me by now, but we need to do one last test..."
Had 4th blood test done...
Around this point... i was turning pale. They we're force feeding my sugar cookies and gatorade, finally had to insert an IV and keep my overnight because they had taken too much blood out.
Now If I even think I have to get a shot, or stitches... I pass out.
Tattoos I'm fine with strangely... but even piercings... Got my tongue pierced, passed out, got my ear pierced, passed out.
