How do I get piercings if needles make me pass out?
I really want to get my ears pierced (just regular lobe ones), but I have vasovagal syncope with very sensitive medical/needle triggers. Even just hearing people talk about needles can make my blood pressure drop.
All the advice I see online talks about it being ‘barely any pain’, but the pain isn’t the issue for me, I just know I’m going to pass out at seeing/feeling the needle.
Has anyone got any advice, or maybe even dealt with this themselves? I’d appreciate any kind of info.
