[QUOTE="Richard Fuller, post: 1752765, member: 470660"] I was diagnosed only a few months ago - initially advised to use 6mm needles, until the latest clinic appointment when a different nurse was surprised I wasn’t using 4mm. She said there was a risk of injecting into muscle since I’m still very lean post-diagnosis. Sure enough last week, as I was trying to finish off the 6mm needles I had a massive hypo straight after taking my Lantus in the morning (6.7 down to 1.8 in 30 minutes). This happened before I’d had my Novorapid and I assume was because I’d injected the Lantus straight into muscle. Needless to say I got rid of the remaining 6mm needles and now am enjoying the 4mm experience! [/QUOTE]
