next month is meh tb jab, and i ain't exactly excited about it. if you don't know what the jab is, tis basicly a big needle with 6 little needles inside it. apparently, if you get punched where you have had the jab, your arm goes all weird and it hurts like hell. but you also get expelled from my school if you do that :P

if you have had the jab, post below and say what it was like :)

That didn't hurt, the six needle thing is Tiny and you can't feel anything, just Like a little click you can hear then that's it, it doesn't hurt!
The actual jab Stung a little But I ALWAYS cry :D But that didn't hurt, what the nurse told me was to tap my feet on the floor when it hurt. It was way funny though :D

Been there, done that.

6 needles doesnt hurt at all.
Next injection, they put the point inside and create a small bubble which stings for like 5 seconds and then its done.

Edit: You only need the second injection if the imprint from the 6 needles has gone.

Its a small sting for about 5 seconds, and doesnt even hurt. the tester (6 needles) is basically nothing so dont worry yourself

the 6 needle thing is nothing i couldnt feel it at all its just like a metal stamp it feels like cold metal on ya skin then they take it off like a second later
the thing which you get a week later the actual needle that stings like hell for about 2-3 minutes then you cant feel anything unless you get hit/knock it on something but dont pick it or it gets infected :(

you may not need the actual needle the stamp is the test for it if it goes into a red circle you dont need it but if it just stays as 6 dots or disappears pray to god.

Like someone said earlier, the 6 little needle things all you feel is a click on your skin, then the actual Tb Needle it stings a bit for roughly 5-10 seconds then its fine after that

Try not to knock it afterwards ;)

the tester is like someone said: a stamp, it is painless and just tests if you can have the actual jab, its not as scary as it sounds "6 needles".
the real jab just feels like a slight sting, then it goes, just think of something else, or talk, i got into an argument with the nurse while she was injecting it, i diddnt realise she had done it.. i felt a little "dazed" afterwards, but with a sit down, it went away.

You will be fine :) I am the biggest scaredy cat about needles :p For my meningitis jab I ran away and hid in the toilets. When getting the actual jab done just think of your girlfriend or think of happy things. You will survive just watch your arm after a few weeks and if you get a scab don't pick it off. It will come off on it's own. (Mine came off on holiday in Salou :rolleyes:)

I had it last year, but I only had the tester and I didn't need the actual jab! I have a good immune system..i think! Anyways, Im not sure but when they come next time I might have to have it done again. The tester sounds like a stapler and mine started bleeding :(
