[QUOTE="megan, post: 2548272, member: 6160"] My local surgery has been having trouble getting me the novorapid in a vial. I've told them it was getting urgent and now I have none and need to change the cartridge on my tandem t slim now. The surgery says they have novorapid pens and I tried explaining that I cannot switch to this alone as I'd need the basal insulin too. So what I'm thinking is either to push my t slim cartridge another day ( although they say only 3 days and I'm aware of the reasons why but it's an unknown exact response in the 4th day). The vial I need may arrive tomorrow Or I try to draw the novorapid ( with syringe) out of the novorapid pen I do have or the novorapid pump cartridge from when I used the accucheck insight pump. It's still in date of course. Never done either of these. Any suggestions welcome. Don't fancy trying to go back on to pens as it will be very difficult to figure out doses for me, this pump has made a big difference to me [/QUOTE]
