Hello all! I just did my lantus injection and when I was wiping away the drop of blood afterwards I felt a small lump.
Now it wasn't there before the injection and I always feel my thighs to check for lumps and bruises as I regularly use them for injections.
I had just taken my new pen out of the fridge and it hadn't quite warmed up yet - could it be a reaction to the cold insulin? 29U of cold insulin injected at a fair rate - faster than I probably should...!
Just wondering if this could possibly be lipohypertrophy or not? I try to rotate but inject into my thighs once a day sometimes twice. I've never felt a lump before. I've been injecting for about 19 months and thighs about 16.
Thanks in advance
