"Making bloods bearable for someone who hates needles!"

Some people are just not good with needles - I'm one of them.

At present I am in a position where I do need to have bloods done from time to time.  I completely understand why this needs to happen and am actually grateful as I know this is a way of keeping track of my health.

That said it still isn't exactly a fun experience (not sure anybody actually enjoys having a needle pushed into their arm!).

I have gone to New Stobhil Hospital for this - all the staff are great but one nurse in particular - Karen - has been fab. 

She is welcoming and funny and she makes every effort (going out of her way) to ensure that the visits I have to make are as easy and stress free as is humanly possible.

Cannot thank her enough for all the efforts she makes to ensure things go well
