@miszu so how was ur experience with Insujet. What do u think is it ok to use or not ????Thanks, for letting me know about this post @db89 ! I just commented on another thread about Insujet, so I ll copy my message to here as well.
Just to give you and others information, for the ones interested about Insujet.... I did use Insujet for some time... maybe a week I believe. First few tries were okay, that time I was, well newly diagnosed so I was so so happy when the Insujet arrived from the UK to me. Im sad to say this, but after about a week I stopped using it as I saw that Insujet in real can't work for me... Well, I maybe didn't experiment with it enough to say for sure that it's not good, again I was quite inexperienced with my whole diabetes, but I immediately became depressed that it's just not doing its job... So it's been sitting on my desk for months now.
There are a few things tho that tells me to try it again and see how it performs. Now I know my diabetes better, know what readings I usually get after meal etc so I can make a better overall review. First few tries with Insujet I didnt feel a thing when injecting, it didnt leave bruises, then it started leaving bruises... Still no pain when injecting, but bruises were there and they were painful. So Im wondering if I started doing something wrong, absorption seemed to turn bad too after my first few tries... Ive been getting busier in life, but I think I ll give it another shot in the future and definitely update people who are interested.
Hope everyones doing well !))
I have read about Afrezza and it sounds ideal. Does anyone think this will be available in the U.K any time soon?I have never heard of Insuljet. For my pens I use a very short, "Nano" size needle by BD.
Do you have access to inhalable fast-acting insulin for bolus shots? I also have Afrezza and hardly use bolus shots at all now.
Both are options in lieu of long needles!
Take care.
@miszu its ok my friend. I have not insujet. I have just seen it over the internet. Hmmm. Let me know if it is good to use.@zahoor228
I cant say its good or bad, because I experienced with it for a short time only while I was still a newbie with diabetes. I ll say this tho. If you r okay with needles then might not worth ur energy trying Insujet, but if u have needle phobia then definitely give it a try. I toughened my mind and just continued using needles, now Im fine with my novopen and meanwhile I totally forgot about Insujet existing. It was long ago, back then I just checked my BG every 15 mins to see how Insujet performs, if the insulin absorbs right etc, but I really didnt know much that time to make a stable review of this device. Im getting home late today, but if thats okay, let me try and see for my dinner bolus how it works again after this long time and let you know about it !Besides its not quite on the inexpensive side so I would really like to try it again myself before I recommend anyone to buy it.
Hope everyones doing great ! X

Not on prescription on the NHS. It doesn't have a European license.I have read about Afrezza and it sounds ideal. Does anyone think this will be available in the U.K any time soon?
