Woman who works at.my wife's deli got her 2nd Moderna today.
Passed out in the pharmacy,they had to lay her down and raise her legs to get the blood flowing.
She says she feels ok now.
Needle-shock...
Absolutely happens.
Back in college .. so early/mid 1980s .. I got pretty sick with something that was tearing up my throat so it hurt to eat. After 3 days without food I went to the health center. I'd never had problems with needles before. They drew blood for testing. Apparently I passed out afterwards. The nurse had her back to me. She said I said "oh shiit" and she whirled around and caught me by the collar on my way to the floor .. saved me from going face first into the concrete slab.
That set me up for psychosomatic needle problems for several decades. I couldn't get a shot, give blood, anything, without passing out when the needle hit. Past it now .. don't like it but I don't pass out.
