[QUOTE="bangkokdiabetic, post: 1975206, member: 36148"] Whilst I appreciate this Cautionary tale and echo the good wishes about your suffering and hope you are progressing well, I wonder would your finger have become infected if you had chosen another finger or indeed another hand for your B[B]lood Test. I use Fastclix and before that multi clix and change needle when I change my lantus pen I also use the needle on the lantus pen for the duration of the pen and have done for years. I have read many posts on here of people who do similar all with no side effects. I believe the change your needle each time of use is I the manufacturers following Legal advice to minimize the chance of legal action and of course [/B] the more time you change the more profit they make a good reason for the advice . COMMON SENSE Is my watchword (s) I believe it is more or as likely to be the Pine needle possible followed by the choice of that finger to prick next so I see no reason to change my routine just be aware of any changes or pain etc and use a diiferent finger each day (Not each time)`.but I do feel their is no reason for people o change to one a time [/QUOTE]
