Hello! You are not alone. There are a lot of people we hate testing their bg's because of the same phobia you have. I would recommend placing your lancet device on the lowest setting. AS my mom would say "lol, it won't hurt". I use to actually take the needle it self and poke my finger. I didn't like using the lancet device because of the fear of the unknown. I use the lancet device now, after 4 years...Good luck
