A few responses have brought up alternate site testing. Have you tried the palm of your hand? The bottom of 1/4 of your palm, below the pinky. It was life-changing for me. Rarely painful (at worst a sting if my palm is sweaty or my skin is dried out), as accurate as a finger prick, and it bleeds as easily as my fingers. I had the same anxiety for years, and now it’s like nothing. You need a special cap (usually clear) for your lancet device. Sometimes it’s included, sometimes you have to call and ask for one.
