I had it about a month ago now, it doesnt hurt and you dont feel it, however like all injections I have I have really bad allergic reaction to them, it shouldn't effect you as noone else in my year had the same problem as me.

I'm 17 and I had it last Monday (a bit late I know, better late than never :p). To be honest you don't even feel a thing, just a little needle (and I mean little) goes in your arm and that's it :s.

Honestly though you don't feel a thing :)

had it almost this time last year... i neva noticed it go in and was surprised at the quickness of being told to get out!. .. i even left the room with my arm out my sleve claiming to the others in teh waiting room it had fallen off ... Doesn't Hurt , Mine Didn't Bleed and if you can make others see that then it'll be good!

I Adore Needles, people say there 'massive' to wind you up but it is small , just close your eyes and look the other way :).

I had mine in year 10, I'm usually ok with needles but the suspense was killing me :rolleyes: once I sat in the chair, sat back, relax. Theres no pain to it.
Your arm will feel like its dragging along with you, I had a dead arm for a day, I couldn't really lift heavy stuff :p
I find it a funny situation, if you note that all the girls eyes will look massive, they hassle you to know what it was like, take that chance to tease them if you wish ;)

I had mine a couple of months back. Mine began to bleed put all of my friend's didnt. I was really scared like i am with every needle but i didn't even feel as though anything had been put into my arm. It'll be ok.

I have to have mine on January 16th.
The leaflet we got said we're going to get all the immunisations against those, in just one needle. Instead of drinking stuff and getting seperate injections. I suppose it's a good thing to have it all in one.

I had my BCG last year ( a year earlier than usual) and that kind of hurt/stung. >.< Does anyone know if it's as bad as that?

Lol, I think people over exadurate [Sp?] about it, some people I knew had that problem, Lol :)
If you relax and don't think too much about it, the injection seems like nothing.

Yeah what he said, relax, and don't look at the needle if you're really scared, just keep your mind off the subject, think of something you like, that makes you happy.
