Blood Blotches/Marks?

[Namitee]

Hello all, first post on here!

I was diagnosed early September this year and it has been going okay for me. The biggest problems were mostly emotional but I'm glad actually managing it has gone okay for me.

I am on the Basal Bolus regime and it seems okay, the Lantus is the most annoying of the two but it's doable.

Recently I have been getting red blotches where I have been injecting my NovoRapid doesn't happen all the time. They are like bloody pockets under the skin and they don't seem to go away for ages! I was just wondering if anyone gets the same? I inject on my sides as it hurts on the front of my stomach. Maybe that's why?

Thanks,

Hi Namitee,
I to was diagnosed in sept and on lantus and novorapid, sounds like you've done amazingly well. It sounds like you've caught a vein, however the more experienced guys will be able to advise better.

I just wanted to say hi and well done! Oh and lantus.....feel the burn!
