    I was terrified the first time I did shots in May. But I remember how I barely felt the needle go in. Its the initial "looking at the needle next to the skin" that gets me haha

    LOL Like I said above, this shot doesnt hurt very much. Sometimes there is a lil sting when the med goes in, but it literally hurts so little that I cant even feel it sometimes.
