Hi newbie here with an extreme fear of needles. I don't mean just feeling queasy or fainting, The mere thaught or a doctor mentioning blood test and I panic and become extremely aggressive, confrontational and generally the hag from hell. This is compounded by the fact I am hypothyroid and know there are other tests that can be done as i am ok with finger pricking . The odd thing is I am ok with a tatooist needle knitting needles etc, but the mere mention of The evil sticky pointy thing and veins send me into a blind panic.
The doctor I saw today was extremely ignorant arrogant and in fact kept rolling his eyes at me and when I got shouty and aggressive (at this point I go into a blind rage which my hubby told me ) another doctor told me do as I am ordered or be struck off and generally told me in not so many words to shut up or he will get me struck off and arrested. For a phobia I have no control over. All I get from any doctor is shut up and grow up. What can I do
