[QUOTE="Senga, post: 964963, member: 21531"] Hi, glad u posted this I have had same problem with forgetting if I had taken insulin, can be minutes later but used to inject without thinking or get distracted. Doubt if you will have time to take up all my precautions I have basal and bolus in a drawer in clear food bags with an elastic band wrapped round them, which means I have to take time to open. I take the basal on rising put it back in bag and put to back of drawer in a folder. Then when ready to have breakfast use the bolus I keep at front of drawer for lunch and dinner then I move it into folder and take out the basal which I take at 8pm. If I am having a supper the bolus comes out again. I always leave both in sight for the morning. Even though my pens are orange and green I would lift the wrong one and inject. Thus all the precaution. I also put needle in sin bin and keep caps so I can check at any time if I have taken insulin. [/QUOTE]
