[QUOTE="StewM, post: 2453483, member: 538114"] In my experience that isn't true. Of course, if you misuse a site issues will occur, but if you're sensitive to the signs of a problem developing any issues heal very quickly (by removing a problem area from your rotation). Since taking more care to use the maximum possible area in all my sites the lipoatrophy I had developed has healed significantly and no further issues have developed at all. This has happened despite having to use my healthier sites more than would normally be advisable on a good rotation. One of the steps that I believe has assisted with this is never using a needle twice (unless I absolutely have to because I forgot to bring spare needles with for instance). [/QUOTE]
