Injection Sites

[cblack1966]

Has anyone else noticed a difference when you change the injection site for long release insulin?

I find injecting into my belly far more effective than when I inject into my thigh.

Am I fantasising here or has anyone else noticed this?

Yes and if you go in the arm with fast actioning is normally even faster

One thing to remember is that fat density and muscle amount/density change all over the body so it's only sound reasoning that absorption will change

In the same way blood test are more reliable from finger blood that alternative sites
