hiya,

when I first started injecting levemir I used to get the opposite to you, almost a small pit where I had injected, I asked my gp and he said this was pretty normal and it would pass in time, just muscles contracting etc etc...and it did...I do find that I get a 'tingly' sensation in my leg for about an hour after my night time injection though...not unpleasant just aware of it, and sometimes I bleed a little, some times I don't.....very random...just thought id share :)

on 14 units levemir evenings ,and novarapid during feeding times :)
