Are you afraid of blood tests?

I have to go get an annual check up at doctors which will include blood test for cholesterol etc but I'm so afraid of needles... Just the thought of a needle sucking up my blood really scares me plus it does hurt, its a sort of aching, uncomfortable, pinching feeling when the
blood is being sucked out of my veins, it really scares me.

And it DOES hurt, i can FEEL it when they blood is being sucked out of me, it doesn't help if I close my eyes and look away while my blood is being sucked out, I can steel FEEL it, it ACHES. How do I get over it?

I have NEVER had a doctor that misses the vein and has try over and over again, that would be the worst but fact is that I can still feel it while the blood is being drawn. It's not a pleasant feeling.

Just the thought that my blood is being drawn out of my body by a needle and going up a tube just makes me queasy, its scary.
