my fingertip that I meant... It takes 5x as long for me to heal from any injury as the norm and even minor injuries or bruises are very dangerous for me... So, pricking my finger on purpose 3x a day? Ummm, NO... Not only would I never be able to touch anything again for the pain there, but I'd surely get another sepsis blood infection and that would be that in pretty short order... The end... but, hey, I'd not have to stick my fingers anymore... So there would be that as an upside... (lol)
