[QUOTE="Emily95, post: 1598649, member: 125911"] When you put a new insulin cartridge in a pen or start a new pre-filled pen I find you have to do more than 2 units for the air shot to get the plunger to touch the bottom of the insulin. I usually do 5, I always make sure I see insulin come out before then dialling up my dose and doing it (: [/QUOTE]
