It's supposed to help by increasing blood flow or something, sire I've read something somewhere.

Be fair to her! Maybe she misunderstood how much knowledge you have about diabetes. Maybe she deals with people all day who don't understand it at all, and believe you can't eat certain things. I know a lot of people who think the same. I think she was using those types of foods to show what...

I've been looking for a smaller pen to take insulin with. The current ones are just too large :( This looks quite a lot smaller, but I've not come across them before. How do they work? I dont have any issues with pens or needles (they dont tend to hurt much either). Is this something I should...
