[QUOTE="dom08, post: 61206, member: 15864"] Hey guys. I'm 21, and was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes 3 weeks ago. I've been prescriped novorapid injections with each meal, and a glargine (spelling?) on the night. Everything was fine - no pain injecting or anything. But recently, I'm having trouble with the injections. Sometimes it takes 2, 3, 4 attempts to get the needle in, and when it is in and I inject, there is a stinging sort of burning sensation under the skin which lasts a minute or so. I'm injecting the novorapid into my abdomen, and am rotating the injection sites. I'm using 5mm micro-fine needles too, which I have used since being diagnosed. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Dom. [/QUOTE]
