I had numbing cream for my cannula for an op quite a few years ago, it was so much better!
I was dreading all the injections and blood tests for ivf but had to get used to them and once the needle has broken the skin it doesn't hurt as veins don't have nerves so you don't feel it thank goodness. I always look away though! Glad I didn't see the 14 bottles or I might have fainted! Just wondered why it was taking so long and when I felt dizzy she was already on the 7th! Its much better lying down because when you feel the blood draining out of your head it has nowhere to go so you don't feel dizzy!
During my last ivf I said ouch during one of the blood tests and the nurse said "sorry its a bit pointy!" Haha!
