Why does the nurse sometime slap your butt before an injection there? Has anybody experienced this? What'd you do after?
It kind of freaked me out.

apparently freaked you out more than the shot itself...lol. it can minimize the sting you feel from the shot.

It's to numb the spot. I ask her out to dinner. I kinda liken it. ;)

it numbs thesite so it doesn't hurt so much, and generally causes your flesh to relax so there isn't a bruise afterwards.
