Hi,
I have been on Lantus 24hr insulin just over two weeks. I notice that I have a reasonable sized air bubble in the insulin. I have tried tapping the pen and expelled 6 units to try and get rid of the air bubble but it is still there.
As it is only injected in the layer of fat just under the skin is it ok to inject or should I discard and start a new pen? Sorry if it sounds like a silly question but as I say I have just started and want to make sure I do everything right.
