I too belong to that club.....ten or so years ago, I put the needle thru my left index finger. Thankfully it went in right next to my nail and didn't hit the bone. It was not fun turning the wheel to back it out though. I was using a zipper foot and just got it too close....ouch. Had a regular Dr. app't the next and showed to the Dr. and he immediatley ordered a tetnus shot. Said anytime you get a puncture wound, you should be sure that you have had a tetnus shot within the last ten years. Hope you heal quickly.
