[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 1507830, member: 11028"] The Dr is right, if you do a Google search you will find the research that says 4mm needles work for all patients regardless of size, it was once thought that people who were overweight/obese needed longer needles. Only other thing I can think of is change the pen cartridges, it may be that your insulin has deteriorated in the heat and is less effective now, worth a try anyway, but if that fails just go back to using 8mm needles or the 5mm/6mm ones.
