At the risk of chucking in a spanner in the work....

...whilst I will continue to absolutely insist that the only real option for you is to go on MDI, if you really do have a severe needle phobia then you do have a couple of last gasp options on Mixtard. There are other Mixtards available - when I was on 2 jabs a day I would have Mixtard 30 (30% bolus, 70% basal) in the morning and Mixtard 50 (50% of each) in the evening.

However this is only a stop gap and won't actually solve the underlying problem.
