Hi All
I am new to the board, I have searched the forum but can not find the answer.
I have had Type 2 for about 6 years now, I was started on diet control then progressed to tablets, my dosage has been increased over the years but I am now at a stage where my Doctor wants to put me on Insulin the reason being I am still showing very high readings on my blood tests.
Problem, I am really needle phobic and I mean reallywhen I have my blood tested it is usual for the nurse to need a helper to hold onto me, I shake,sweat and hypoventalate, I know I would not be able to stick a needle in myself (even a small one) is it possible to get one of the needle free injectors on the NHS.
Thanks
