[QUOTE="Celsus, post: 1729846, member: 185674"] Exactly Scott, that is the kind of fun you need to also get through the tough times you had when young with IDDM! ;o) Just think about how many times you have been asked by somebody: "Isn't it hurting to inject yourself like that and oh my good 3-5 times a day you have to do it???" For most diabetics the actual task of injecting the insulin is the least of all the trouble you have with it. Could not avoid smiling big when Eli Lilly folded the inhaleable insulin project after having spent more than $1B on it and even gone through the motion to launch it to the market. One would think that such a professional company with so much diabetes history would have done their homework first to understand us their patients better.:) I could also post some descriptions about how to moderate your old insulin injection gear into a precise flying 2-inch-needle-dart pop-gun with a range up to around 8 meters distance and still punching them solid into your posterwall next to Suzi Quatro or Blondie or whoever you fancied back then. My father was certainly very impressed about its functionality back then, though less impressed about the lack of safety having them wissle through the house and the many holes left in the wall... Tough days back then, as it still is today with this disease. But we should never forget also to have some fun in life! [/QUOTE]
