[QUOTE="PunkyRob, post: 817031, member: 172535"] My aches are in my joints, shoulders, elbows, knees and ankles and the numbness, pins and needles are in my feet. I think my cholesterol was alright last year so I am not on anything for it. I am living at my mother and fathers house for a while so I will ask mum to ring the doctors while I am work and I will book the retinopathy appointment on Saturday at Specsavers. So is my Lantus a type of Basal or is Basal a type of insulin? I do rotate my injection sites, I use my legs for the Lantus and my stomach for the Novorapid, I do not have any lumps, but I get the occasional bruise and I have very rarely had some insulin come out of the injection hole. This is very rarely, I cant remember the last time I noticed this happen. My pens a few years old now, one of them might be even older than that. They all still push liquid out of them, but are they pushing out the right amount is your question. I will try and get new ones when I go and see the Doctor at the appointment. I have tried to order pens from the GP but they never put them on my prescriptions. [/QUOTE]
