I'm not fond of needles either, really. I do like you do, 1, 2, 3 GO!! It doesn't really bother me that much to give myself an injection or change an infusion set. Strangly enough though not only can I not watch my blood being drawn, I was non compliant for over 5 years because I would pass out every time I would have to get it done.

I really can't explain what my problem with blood draws at a lab is. I've given my self shots for more than 10 years and I even have piercings and tatoos. What gives? ;p
