So I'm new to this, iiv been diabetic for bout 27 odd years, and have been using the novopen3 penmate which has been discontinued my devices are getting old now amd I dropped one tonight an it just popped open so now I'm unable to use this, I still have 1 device I can use but the spring on that is getting a bit stiff and think it won't b long til it's on its last legs 2, my problem is I have THE biggest needle phobia and the novopen 3 is the only device I feel comfortable using, IV tried to use the pens with the needle covers but I juat can't push the needle in myself where a she penmate has a button and a spring that puts the needle in for you. IV read a few posts on here about some people still having them but they have been quite old posts, and just looking for any help in sourcing one,. An also if anyone have any alternative options or knows of any other device that can auto inject? Or even what the omnipod is like IV heard good and bad things about it and I'm not sure if that would be better for me due to the needle phobia I have when I know this lasts for 3 days, HELP please. ‍<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="♀️" title="Female sign    :female_sign:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/2640.png" data-shortname=":female_sign:" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
