Hi all
I've been changed to the BD Viva needles from the Microfine Ultra ones. I find i can't get on the with the new ones, i'm needle phobic and the new ones hurt a lot more than the old ones.
Have spoken to my GP who said I can't go back the microfine ones, spoken to my nurse who said that the two needles are exactly the same ( according to a BD rep )
I don't know what else to do, its at the point where im now not taking the insulin and sugars are getting really high
I'm seeing the consultant tomorrow but i don't hold out much hope
