I'M SCARED!! HOW DO I PRICK MY FINGER??

[StrongBeliever]

I have a practical exam next week.
My exam is on finding out your own blood group. I already know my blood group plus I know the steps on how to do it but I have this huge fear were I LEGIT CAN NOT poke my finger.

I have managed to get away with it during class but now that I actually have to do it for MARKS will seriously affect my grade overall.

I've been practicising all day.. it's painful and no blood has came out yet.

I don't want to fail the exam..
I'm thinking of getting a numbing cream from a pharmacy on the day of the exam but not sure if that would work tho

Excuse me??
I'm actually being serious? Why on earth would I waste my time trolling??

Anyone here with diabetes?
How do you prick your finger with minimal pain?

Have you ever considered using a fake or prosthetic finger?

Troll or not. SDN is not for medical advice. Closing.
