How many sites do people use, I use about 3-4 that I rotate, every 3 days around the belly area, anywhere else and the obsorbtion is pretty poor and makes my bs levels spike above 11
my pattern is similar I start in the centre of my stomach and work across use under the ribs to my side, then move down 2 inches and work the way back to the centre of my stomach and so on and then start on the other side.

I just work my way across my tummy each day for three of them, with one a day on a leg - the levemir. I find it's slower on the leg and not so effective, and I also find it more painful, but I prefer to have one on the leg than all of them on the tummy. I developed a lump on one leg and was told to avoid it. I've been diabetic since 1991 but only injecting since 2007.
