Needles
Hate them. If ever Casualty or something similar is on, I'm watching through my fingers. I was watching The Simpsons the other day with my daughter and they were at the docs getting jabs- a cartoon and I looked away.

I wouldn't let a nurse do that prick-test thing on me 'cos I was too scared.

I had an op and they wrote 'extremely needle-phobic' on the charts at the end of my bed.

I hyperventilated having a blood test at the docs, so much so that 2 receptionists came in and offered me tea, biscuits, etc. I normally get my g/f to come with me but she couldn't this time, I almost didn't have it.

I had to have the camera thing stuck up my old chap and when I saw it come out of it's box like a 40ft black monster I tried to climb the wall. Literally. They did it under a general anaesthetic in the end, but I had to be put out with gas before they could put that evil drip thing in my arm, and when I woke up I covered it with a towel until it was taken out.

I'm getting a funny feeling in my belly now just typing about them, so I'm going, and not going to look at this again until I've plucked up enough courage!

And yes, I know... wuss.
