I thought it was scary at first. But I've gotten mostly used to em.

IVs are painless for the most part, the nurses are very skilled at giving them and make sure you feel just a small pinch. Nothing at all to worry about. This is coming from someone who gets blood tests and IVs regularly. I'm a pretty frequent flier at my local emergency room.

They almost had to put my daughter on an IV a couple of months ago. Luckily, she was finally able to get some nourishment before it was necessary.

Good! I never like to see kids needing serious medical treatments of any kind. Kids are innocents.

I got the two primary doses for the covid shot (Pfizer/BioNTech) and the first one I had to lay down afterwards as I was just about to faint :o

Eek, I've heard of people having that strong of a reaction, but never felt it myself.

I got Pfizer and had a very, very minor reaction to it somehow. XD

Don't know why I haven't turned into a 5G robot yet. Those antivaxers promised I would become one :(

My reaction to the covid vaccines was getting a giant lump in my arm at the injection site for like a week so it hurt to raise my arm and stuff. :D
