I know it seems silly, but I've always had a deathly fear of needles. I have had them, but I nearly have a panic attack when I am getting ready to have one. Just talking about having to get a shot or needle and I tense up. I can't seem to get over it. It just hurts so much! Anyways, my question is (because I know I will face many more needles in my lifetime), Are there deep skin creams doctors can use to help numb it more and/or is it possible to get muscle relaxers or something to calm me down before the shot (or blood test)??
