Hi Leakydisc,
Welcome to posting and yep got a few of them as well
Haven't had that particular thing but have huge amounts of needles in the spin over the years....
Do they hurt,,,,,,
Well yes a bit but it depends on what is doing it and also how much you can stay relaxed......
We do half decent pocket duties f we are needed and I really hope they will find out and be able to help you.
Have they ever talked abut surgery? I would so like at least 2 of mine removed but they have already taken some and they seem reluctant to do the ones I want shot of .... they do sort of hurt eh?
Good luck and please let us know how it goes. Nice to meet you. Cris x0
