Every now & then, stuff like that will happen to me, but only every now & then (I have Loads of platelets

). It usually only happens to me when I'm anemic, but your situation may be different.
I too, get grossed out (even though it's my own blood). Honestly, my biggest "blood story" comes from a bad site, rather than a poked finger. I went to pull the set out & blood went all over my skirt! It took a while for me to get the bleeding to stop, too.
