[QUOTE="Silvercat, post: 4225, member: 3759"] Yes I am using the 8mm 31 gauge needle. I have plenty of fat on my stomach and can definitely pinch more than an inch. Am doing it exactly as she showed me. Its the ones that prick going in that seem to be the bleeding and bruising ones. The ones I dont feel seem to be ok. My technique is maybe wrong and I do hesitate at times before putting the needle in as I really hate doing it. I know I am stressed cos I am also gripping the pen so hard. I dont know how to overcome this hatred of injecting. I feel its ruling my life at the moment and I want to be in charge and I'm just not. The first few days injecting seemed to be fine then about the last 5 days I havent felt well particularly. Most nights my dinner has gone in the bin because I couldnt taste it and it was like eating for the sake of it. Tonight half way through dinner I suddenly felt sick with stomach pains. I gave my meat to the cats and sat quietly for a while till things passed. I am a bit better now but this is all really getting me down. [/QUOTE]
