[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 841183, member: 11028"] Use your stomach and arms for your QA insulin and your legs and bum for your long-acting, with bolus doses many of us inject our insulin 10 - 20mins before food to give the insulin time to work before the food digests as QA insulin takes around 15mins to begin lowering bg levels, but if the meal is high in fat or has low-gi carbs then you might want to inject just before or after eating. The following has some good advice on injection sites and injection techniques: [URL]http://www.bd.com/us/diabetes/page.aspx?cat=7001&id=7261[/URL] [/QUOTE]
