Yes but mild: We use numbing medication to deaden the skin before inserting the catheter.

I'm in pain in my forearms a week after my angiogram. they tried for 20 mins to use my right arm, then had to go left. My arteries weren't easy to access. My left arm is now the worst. They're bruised, but the worst thing is the pain from the entry site.
