[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 411508, member: 21149"] I inject once a day for each of basal and bolus and swap the needle from one pen to the other so it gets used twice. This works well for me and there is only a few hours between each use. It may not save the NHS much but every little helps, the risk of infection is very low if the needle is removed and protected between pen use and I've not found the second use any more painful than with a new needle.
