Hannahd,
the drop of blood we need to check for sugars is the
TINIEST drop you've ever seen, you probably loose more blood than that every day when brushing your teeth if your gums bleed; you don't even get to
see the needle used to draw the blood, it's all inside the sterile, single-use lancet!
There is absolutely nothing scary or messy about it, I promise!
