[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 1927941, member: 468714"] Hi [USER=468725]@Libby3781[/USER], Stinging is listed as a side-effect of Levemir. It would be a shame to have to stop it and switch to another long-acting insulin if the Levemir is doing the trick. And there is no guarantee that another long-acting insulin would not have the same side-effect. And as [USER=372207]@Antje77[/USER] suggested perhaps try out other sites. Talk to your DSN but I think that the site of say, a Levemir injection, is not as crucial as for short-acting insulin, where the abdomen seems to provide the fastest absorption compared to other sites. Best Wishes and maybe the stinging could get you out of some of those pesky household chores !! Fingers and toes crossed!! (Opps, on second thoughts crossed toes might hamper circulation)!! :):inpain::):) [/QUOTE]
