top of hand, they put numbing cream there and on my elbow crease (i think theyd use elbow if they couldnt find a vein) but i was sooo scared, so i had the gas mask to put me to sleep, breathed in a couple breathes n remember fallin asleep feelin all cosy, they put in the cannula + anaesthetic once i was out cold. woke up back in my room with boobs lol! x
