I had one menningacoccal last year and I had my tetnus / diptherria / whopping cough one on monday. The only injction we've had to get two of in a small period of time is Hep B which we got the second dose like 6 months later or something...
They don't hurt at all!
Mind you, on Monday the injction didn't hurt, twn mins later everyone's arms were dead though and we couldn't lift them.. heheh... Right now it just feels like I've pulled th muscle, mos of the pain is gone. (except when you get punched... or land on it in self-defence...)
We still get jellybeans :-D When I got Hep B last I got heaps cause mine wouldn't stop bleeding. I was down there with the girl who freaks out totally at all needles and has like screaming fits before she gets them. This time she actually did really well, only cried a little.

Good luck with them Kitten! That's strange that you get the immunisation 3 times though! We had one immunisation thing at school when I was 16, that's the last I remember, it was a shot, and something else on a spoon that we had to eat. I remember being so worried about the shot because I HATE needles, but it ended up just feeling like a mosquito bite.
One of my friends passed out though...
that probably doesn't help you! Sorry! trust me, if I can get an injection, anyone can!!

uh that is strang. we don't get injections or shots at school. i have never heard of this one although i could be one a space case or two we don't have it. to go to school though we have to have our maedical records that show we have all our vacinations. if we don't we have to go to the doctor and get it done. I have never gotten a shot at school. we do do little things such as test your eyesigh and hearing but that's it.
I don't like sots either. i especially hate it when they draw blood. I seem to get it done a lot becuase they want to see how my wieght is. *sigh* very groddy.

What does your blood have to do with your weight? 
I've never had an injection at school either yet.
Also, what is space case and what is wrong with your spelling? (no offense, just wondering)

Yes, it is strange about having to have it three times...anyone have any ideas as to why? 
Min, you said that you hate injections, but do you actually have a reason for hating them? I mean, I guess I know they're not the most pleasant things but no one ever seems to have an actual reason for hating them!
And about your friend fainting, isn't that kind of bad?
I just kind of wish June wasn't so far away so that it would be over with! It won't really be over with untill about October though.  My friend was a drama queen, so she would have just been doing it for attention  Well...the why I don't like needles story: When I was 8, I fell out of a tree (as most of my stories start ) and I landed on my back, on one of those metal slides. I can't remember it happening, but apparently I couldn't feel my legs for quite a while. When the ambulance got there, they were taking me to hospital, and put a drip in my arm. This is the only thing I remember - it hurt like hell. I kept telling them, my wrist was hurting more than my back was, but they wouldn't listen because I was only 8, and what did I know. My mum was worried about it, and checked the drip - she'd been studying nursing at the time - and they'd put the drip in the WRONG PLACE, so instead of it going into my vein and being painless, it was this great needle embedded in my muscle/tissue!! MORONS! Since then I haven't taken kindly to needles. I don't even know what blood type I am, I'm too scared to go get it checked. And I know that's silly, I'm 23 and I'm scared of needles but it's amazing how little things in our childhood can have such a dramatic effect on us... |

we don't get injections or shots at school. They must do things differently over there, good Seeker of Elspeth. All of my shots and immunisations were done at school (except when I was a baby of course). And except for the rubella one I was supposed to have in year ten but didn't, because I was "sick" and had to stay home from school. And then had to hide the note they sent home to my parents, giving alternate times when I could get it... I did eventually get that shot though, when I was at TAFE. There was a real epidemic of measles in twenty-somethings so I thought I'd better do something about it, rather can catch the measles and end up in hospital. Apparently, it's a lot nastier when you're older. I don't like needles but sometimes you have to have one. The last one I had was a couple of months ago, when I had a ghastly gastro thing and the doctor shoved a tiny little needle into my shoulder saying, "This should sting right about... now." And it did. Bloody doctors. But I'm sure you'll be fine, Kitten. There'll be the inevitable clique of girls fainting and being silly, but in the end, you'll get out of class for a little while and that has to be good.  |

My coconut was worried about it,
And about getting to be out of class for a while, I will!
And we have to wait in a room for 20mins afterwards aswell as waiting before so that's about half an hour!
However, just to be annoying it will probably happen during at time when I don't have class.  |
