He has quite strongly said he'd rather die than have an injection, and I think that would actually include blood. If you know anybody with a phobia you would understand that it's more than just a bit of a worry, its terrifying and they even strongly believe it will do them harm if they let the thing near them.
He chipped a tooth skateboarding and pulled it out himself, because he didn't want to go to the dentist and have a needle. Can you imagine ripping your own tooth out when its not even wobbly? He has bad teeth and I warn him about absesses but he doesn't care, there isn't a chance in hell a needle is going near him. I think you'd only manage to get one in him if he was unconscious, and when he woke up he'd only rip it out again... or faint! When it comes to the point of fearing your girlfriend will have a needle in her arm, I think I believe him when he says he would refuse a needle even if he needed it to live.
