[QUOTE="Deleted member 527103, post: 2707012"] Sorry you are experiencing problems with the disposable insulin pens I second the comment about getting reusable pens. These are far more robust, produce less waste and the cartridges take up less space in your fridge. You also mention the risk if a pen broken while you are away. This risk is one of the reasons why it is always recommended to take twice as much diabetes supplies with you when you are away. It is also why the recommendation is to have a spare reusable pen (and take it with you when away overnight) because after time, these can eventually fail. Reusable pens are, in my opinion, a much better solution than syringes. [/QUOTE]
