Tetanus shot is a good idea - no idea when I had my last one :(

Get x-rays asap. I did that. After stinging stopped I pressed on it felt OK. Held a super strong mag. on my finger, nothing. Went to my quilting group next day & sewed all day. Just before I left there I told my friend what had happened. She convinced to to go for x-rays & sure enough a part of the needle was in there. It was near the nail bed of my pinky as well.
