I once had an epidural, that was like that, non-pregnancy related, but for another surgery I had. I believe that it was a student. I said, stop. I'll take the nausea that may result from the surgery, just stop.

Some people, just aren't born with the ability to administer needles of any kind.

Feel for you there, and others that have had issues around LP's and other procedures, similar
