[QUOTE="Gizmo123, post: 412247, member: 76878"] You'll be fine. You may find you put on some weight now your on insulin as you body won't be using fat/muscle for fuel due to high blood sugar. If injecting is really painful you could try putting an ice cube on the chosen injecting spot for a minute to numb the area before injecting. Great in tge house but not do easy outside although a can of juice works. Or you could get a numbing cream from the doctors such as Emla Cream. A shorter needle might be worth trying too. I can't imagine what ur going through as I was a child when diagnosed. Your head must be spinning. Take it slow and trust me you will be fine. :-) Ps Remember to do things like inform DVLA and insurance if u drive.
