if you can’t tolerate the feeling of the numbing cream, you can also use freeze/cold spray or an ice pack for a different feeling

One time I had to get a blood test and I fainted when they put numbing cream on the area because even the sensation of touch there was too much

I found the arm so much less painful, they also tend to be easier to find veins in so less of chance of them going in again. just my personal opinion,

write the alphabet with the toe of your shoe opposite the arm they’re poking, it helps distract and keep you from tensing up!! good luck!

also if you do your hands wear gloves once you have put the cream on as it will help the veins be better for the doc

From one person with this phobia to another (had surgery yesterday) ask them not to put a bandaid or tape on after they remove the IV-

I had to go to the ER for a kidney stone, and when they put the IV in the crease of my arm and told me I could still bend it I refused for the next

I had the worst needle phobia so I developed a fear of ✨tetanus ✨ instead and I’m better about it now

I have to have Ivs a lot and prefer the hand. You don’t have to worry about bending your arm/can use hands. Good luck!

As someone with a phobia of something else… you are way stronger than me. I’m proud that you are even trying it yourself

Hey hun, you can do this! But is there any way you could ask them to put the IV in when you’re under anaesthetic? Xx

Hi friend! I struggle with this! If you let them know, a lot of the time they’ll give you anxiety meds by mouth, (pt2)
