I totally understand what you mean! I don't like to see when I have to get an injection or blood draw, BUT I can always watch other people get stuck with needles, and it doesn't bother me a bit. My thing is that "it'll hurt more if I look"...if that makes any sense! Blood doesn't bother me though. You'll probably get over that fear...it's not like you'll be sticking yourself with the needles, it will be other people.
