[QUOTE="ebony321, post: 202210, member: 17199"] That's a good point. I was told to always change lancets and needles when i was diagnosed. I was also told they apparently don't recommend to inject in arms anymore either. Also not to inject through clothes but i know some people still do this. So i guess times do change and what was top notch info back in the day is now scoffed at as ridiculous.. I can imagine in the future people laughing at insulin pumps that we use now, thinking what on earth is that :lol: I guess it would be hard to break out of something your used to for so long. I'm shocked that you wouldn't be encouraged to break the routine and change everytime. My nurse is a very 'abide by the guidelines' and likes to crack the whip i think :lol: but don't get me wrong she's lovely and awesome and no you can't have her :wink: [/QUOTE]
