[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 95970, member: 1161"] My difficult child is needle phobic. At the dentist's recently, she picked up a syringe which she uses to put this coating stuff on the back teeth and he saw it and was 1/2 way out of the chair before she could assure him and show him it was NOT a needle. At the one and only time we had blood taken when he was 10, we used the EMLA cream, promised him 2 ps2 games and $50 cash. He still couldn't do it and it took 5 people to hold him down. Don't know what we'll do if he ever does need dental work with freezing, or more blood taken. He's now over 6'1" and probably 190. Would have to knock him out somehow LOL. Sorry no advice, just can empathize with your worry. Wishing you good luck and hope you find something that works for you. {{{HUGS}}} I always read these threads, and hope there'll be something that will work for us should the need arise. [/QUOTE]
