Ok so I don't care too much as the tendonitis is killing me and I can't even get up the stairs. But I am a real wimp and I hate needles so just to prepare myself, honestly how much will this hurt?

The dr has me worried as she said it would hurt and usually agonising things are only slightly uncomfortable....

I found it very very bearable though also warned about the pain. The dr told me to indicate if I couldn´t stand it any longer and it wasn´t a problem at all! Actually it felt quite pleasant in a perverse kind of way, bizarre sensation!
