[QUOTE="Ian DP, post: 861615, member: 91575"] That seems very wrong. I am also LADA, with insulin pen at the ready but not used. My hospital nurse has told me to contact them immediately I feel I need to go on insulin. Then they will hep / advise on how / what to do. When I was first given my pen (prescription though hospital, but via my GP) I wasn't sure how to work it, and indeed although given the pen i was not given any insulin or needles to go with it. Walked into the diabetic hospital, and within a few minuites a nurse came out and spent 10mins showing me what to do (and giving me a needle and insulin to go with the pen). And told if I have any more questions to just pop in or phone them. So actually very helpful at the hospital. Give them a call. Tell them you need some help..... Or just call into your local diabetic hospital. I am sure they will help. [/QUOTE]
