When I was diagnosed I had GlucoRX needles from the hospital and not only were they painful but they also left horrendous bruises all over my belly and thighs. When I got my next box of needles from the pharmacy they gave me Novofine which were a lot less painful - and now I hardly ever bruise. I have been asking for Novofine since.
I have received a letter from my doctors, with a thick booklet on how to inject myself (!), saying that I am being switched to Omnican needles. I've written back and asked to be kept on my original prescription as i find these needles to be less disagreeable with me.
But, does anyone have any experience with Omnican vs Novofine?
