        I think you have to have posted a certain number of times before you are allowed to private message. If you've got questions etc you are probably better off posting on the forums - you are more likely to get a range of responses or find someone who has a similar experience to share.

        these days with shorter needles and modern insulins the need to pinch that inch is lessened( straight in at 90 degrees ) -- but seeing your avatar reminded me of my old days
        more inches make nicer pinches !! :>)
