    Hi i was the same i had mine 3 weeks ago and she puts in the local first which stings a little then i didnt feel the actual needle at all. Just a slight pressure but not really noticable lol.
    Then its over in about 10min all up. i had to stay there on the bed for 2hrs and then i could go home i had to rest for 24hrs. Its just to make sure the small hole seals up nice and it would do very quick as the needle is very thin.
    So i just layed on the couch for the day and i was fine to do normal things after 24 hrs. Within reason.
    Good luck and dont stress the procedure is no where near as bad as people think i was pleasantly surprised.
    Oh its just the waiting for results that is the worst.

    Thanks saschasmum and sallymarie, wow, so you had to stay on the bed for 2 hours before you where allowed to leave. We are actually going to pay the extra and get the FastDNA so we should have the results for the more common things they test for in 48 hours.
