OUCH!

So I had a ultrasound guided biopsy done this morning on my thyroid and boy do I NOT want to go through that again. Why does injecting the anesthetic hurt more than the procedure? Then at one point after doing my left side, he made another incision for the needle and so I get injected again with "pain anesthetic" and proceeded to make the small incision with the scalpel and I felt the incision so I let him know it was hurting and he gave me another injection of anesthetic which thankfully I didn't feeling as much. Whew! What a trauma. My neck was hurting from being subjected to being poked, prodded and being bent back for about 30 minutes but seemed forever. Towards the end I was getting very uncomfortable and getting the cold sweats like when you're under immense pain and the next step is passing out. I was praying the whole time for strength and to be over with. I usually am pretty tolerant of pain today was an exception. Hope everything will turn out for the best when I get the results next week!
