TheDoctor 0 Posted December 25, 2003 Ok. now to start off sometimes when someone has to have a limb such as a leg or arm amputated and it has been hurting a lot before it got amputated even when it is gone sometimes they can still feel it hurting the way it did. This is called having a Ghost Arm/Leg/etc. Now earlier this year I got a meningococcal vaccination through a needle. Now some times the arm I got it in hurts exactly the same way it did when I got my vaccination. This would suggest I have a "Ghost Needle". It only hurts I would say about once every 3 weeks or less so it isn't a problem. I just wanted to hear your opinions on this subject. Thoughts anyone?

A l t e r E g o 9 Posted December 26, 2003 I believe you, I still have ghost needles from vaccinations I received in childhood. Most rememberable; double shots of penicillin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cassidy 0 Posted December 31, 2003 I get ghost needle feelings as well. Sometimes an injection can hurt for a few months on and off before the feeling finally goes away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
