Ive put this under type 1 as Im more likely to get a response given the audience. Hi, need some help, Im a type 2 and over time my medication has become less affective, so now need to go onto insulin, which will be a daily background dose and a dose when I have a meal. I have one problem I have a needle phobia, its so bad its recorded on my medical records. I wasent great before but spent a long time in hospital having 2x injections 4x a day and daily blood tests, and now have the phobia. My doctors have been great about it but I just cannot use a needle. Ive researched the InsuJet, my doctors are willing to prescribe it, however they cant as nobody at the doctors are trained on it so are unable to show me how to use. I know I need to be showen how to administer the insulin but do they need to train me on the InsuJet? Ive even messaged InsuJet themselves but had no response yet. Any help would be much appreciated.
 
I would just like to say InsuJet have come back to me and have been absolutely fantastic. I will give everyone a update in the next couple of weeks.

I hope it works for you. A review would be great because we regularly get members posting with needle phobias.

Good lcuk.
