Has an aversion to needles ever kept you from taking care of your diabetes the way you should?

Yes, I don't test as often as I should because I hate getting stuck.
 
Yes, my doc has recommended insulin for my type 2 but I've avoided it because of the needles.
 
Both of the above.
 
I hate needles, but my diabetes control is more important, so I deal with it.
 
What's the big deal? It's just a little pinch.
