Does it hurt to get a cbc done?

Needle stick: A blood sample needs to be collected for the test and the hurt is as much as may be associated with a needle stick.

Needle no, price yes: If you don't have medical insurance the retail price of a cbc, about $120, will hurt much more than the needle prick in your arm.

Cbc: Butterfly needle is used, especially for ones with anxiety about needles.
