[QUOTE="XxTinkerxx, post: 1871585, member: 114227"] Hey Libby! [emoji1366] I'm pleased to say that my Tickle Flex arrived approximately 2 weeks after I first ordered it. Before it arrived I was using a cube of ice to numb the area. First time I used the Tickle Flex I felt it, so I am now using the ice beforehand as well. I showed it to my DN on Friday and she had never seen or heard of it before and said she was going to recommend it to one of her other patients who is also struggling with injections. Apparently she does it in the shower [emoji371]! Started of on 6 units. Increased by 2 every 3 days and it started to kick in at 10. DN suggested I stick to 10 for now, and I am going back to see her in 3 weeks. Friday was the first day since I got diagnosed in 2012 that I remained in the green ALL day, apart from one reading at 8.8 at about 11:00pm. I have just ordered a Food and Blood sugar log book from Amazon so I can keep a more detailed record of how the foods I eat and the time I eat them affect me. [URL]https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/1717005837[/URL] The log book I received from the DN does not give me enough space to write down thins like the times or food. Not many pics of the inside of the book are on Amazon so when it arrives I will take some pics and post it on here. It may help someone else! [/QUOTE]
