I had enough of getting poked with a needle by the time I was 5 and still hate them...
I was anemic and had to go in for weekly blood draws, sometimes more than one a week... Gave me a life long fear and hate of getting shots and blood drawn....
Luckily the medicine they gave me helped and then I got used to eating high iron vegetables and didn't need the medicine... If I don't get enough iron in my system, I get nose bleeds easy sometimes in the shower...
But have a few carrots and some broccoli and I'm good again....
