[QUOTE="Jem, post: 33503, member: 11146"] Just had a few thoughts (it happens occasionally) firstly, I hope they've given you an injection pen and not a traditional needle ... the pens are WAY easier and seem to be standard issue - you dial up the right amount of the right insulin (according to your plan) and once you've done the first little push it's really not fiddly at all. secondly, there are sure to be other under 30's in your area (it's actually more common than people realise) who share diabetes and your local brand of diabetes group should be a good place to meet other young (or not so young) people who will understand you. thirdly, keep on coming back any time ;) xx [/QUOTE]
