Chef Guy,
The only painful part for me was when they injected local anesthesia. This gave me a few fleeting bee stings like Firey mentions. Once numbed up it's just an uncomfortable and somewhat creepy feeling when the actual ESI is given. It's far from being a big deal. Especially, as Firey mentions, when compared to our normal pain levels. Good luck, I hope it helps.
