that's what I done and saw the same benefits, fresh needles play a big part I think.I used to use one a day, for novorapid. And change every couple nights for levermir.
Started to use fresh with every injection. I get less lumps, zero pain and fond my insulin is absorbed better. Not sure if it's just that my injection routine is better butties put it down to fresh needles.
I used to use the old glass syringe and massive metal needle which all had to be sterilised after each injection so was in the mind set of re-using. But I now change after EVERY injection, after several years ago,a needle broke off in my thigh and is still floating round my body somewhere! It is not worth the risk.
