[QUOTE="iHs, post: 920463, member: 8799"] A lot of diabetics will bruise or bleed a tiny bit when injecting into the tummy. A good alternative is to use the top of the arm as this hurts far less if at all and very rarely causes bleeding or bruising. The downside is that insulin will take a tiny bit longer to work but there's not a lot of difference and it enables people to be happier and keeps tummy ok incase of wanting a pump and finding that a degree of pen needle scar tissue has built up and poses problems with infusion sets delivering insulin ok.
