[QUOTE="xAoifex, post: 518961, member: 45422"] I'm afraid nothing is going to make me change my lancet and needle every time, I have neither the time, space or inclination to do it! I change them every day (usually!). Last week I was at a conference which included dinner, having no idea what what going to be on the plate and the timing I do what I normally do and inject as I eat, bread roll to start, bolus number 1, starter another bolus, main course after about 15 mins, another shot then dessert then cheese and crackers! 5 courses over about 90 mins (with copious amounts of wine!) no way was it feasible to use a new needle each time as a:- they take up too much space in my bag, b:- what do you do with the used needles when out? One or 2 you can deal with but by the end of the day I would have had 9 or 10! c:-I really don't want to draw attention to myself (I'm not ashamed or anything but I don't like drawing attention to it all when I'm surrounded by people I don't know). I would love to see the "real" microscope pics [/QUOTE]
