so they melted a hole into my fingernail :D

slammed the door shut on my finger yesterday

throbbing pain all night, couldn't sleep

today i go in, and they do x-rays then heats up a paper clip till its red hot and melts a small hole into my nailbed to relieve the built up blood

sounded like searing a steak lol

i almost passed out, the sight of blood lol

i started a new job this week and got a TB skin test today. I didn't know about it ahead of time (therefore no mental preperation) and I am DEATHLY afraid of needles. So I go in and they take my blood pressure and heartrate and the nurse is like "WOW you're blood pressure is VERY high and you heart rate is astonishing for sitting in a chair" I'm like "Im having a heart attack..." then I passed out. HAHA So the medics came and I eventually had to get the test done for legal reasons.. to which I cried all the way through it. I'm a 22 year old baby. But it turned out to be good cause I held up boring orientation for 2 hours!

i had that happen to me.. it kills, but i took it like a man and cut a small hole into my fingernail with an industrial razor blade, and i had to keep draining the blood for a few hours to ease the pain from the pressure it puts under your nail.

I had to do the TB test when i was like 8 or 10. They misdiagnosed my father with it, and we all had to get the test. I'm so afraid of needles. But all they do is stick it under the skin and like if it swells or something you're ****ed.

i couldnt sleep at all last night because of the pressure under the nail

they say you should get it drained or else you could get an infection from the blood under the nail

HAHA, I was reading Surfofpinks post and was thinking, "Man, Cynikal doesn't look like he would freakout so much over something like that" I mean I've never met him but in his pics and posts he don't look like no wimp. Surfofpink and Cynikal, your avatars are SOO confusing! WHO IS WHO???

ewwweee... I got a little cut while working on the car the other day and I was pissed!! I mean, I haven't cut/hurt myself in years. I was wearing latex gloves (I don't like dirty hands neither) and my finger was burning like mad... so I took my gloves off to see WTF? and it was bleeding everywhere. I still have no idea what happened cuz I didn't feel anything. Spontaneous bleeding lol

and when there is a LOT of blood or whatever... sometimes I get all light headed like a sissy and I go pale and start sweating like mad. It's genetics though, my dad is the same way so I can't do anything about it.
