@mushi it's not so scary,
-
@mushi They prick your finger and do a test with copper sulphate to check your blood iron levels, then they basically put an IV in and have you flex your hand for a while whilst the containers fill up. You only feel the initial needle jab, you can't feel the needle or anything.
-
@mushi You'll may feel weak after doing it, but that's it.
-
@nerthos @rarity @madflavors the very sigh of a seringue gives me chills, the perspective of donating blood IS scarying me
-
@mushi lots of people are like that. it's the same for me. :P
-
@mushi Then don't do it.
-
@mushi i don't really blame you, I don't really cotton to the sight of blood
-
@ceruleanspark oh god, i was afraid of that.... i think i could endure the needle in my arm, but the finger thing seems to hurt a lot
-
@madflavors i dont have problem with blood and i love watching surgeries, but the needles scare the hell out of me.
-
@mushi It stings. It's like the little needle they use for blood sugar tests. It just sort of clicks on your finger.
-
@ceruleanspark well, i think i will have to think about this for some more time
