[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2157132, member: 372207"] Anyone had this happen? Just took my long acting (tresiba, in my leg, exactly where the pictures tell you to take your insulin) and instead of nothing to see or a slight elevation of the skin it looked more like a thick hard mosquito sting, but about 3 times as big. It was very much noticeable even while injecting, so it doesn't seem anything allergic like. More like the insulin just sits in some kind of pocket instead of spreading. Still there, 30 minutes later. Any ideas as to what that's about? It's definitely not a much used area, as I prefer arms or more unusual parts of my legs. I've marked the spot with a pen to remember to avoid, and I'll keep this in mind should my diabetes behave erratically in the next few days. [/QUOTE]
