Pain From Insulin?
Within the last 3 years I have been getting a spreading burning sensation off and on. I will inject into either the left or right side and a painful burn will spread from the site and go across my belly to the other side. It's not from going too fast.. Anyone else run into this?
I was having a lot of pain injecting. I was using Lantus and they switched me to Tresiba.
Still stinging on injection. Got advice from diabetic clinic. What I was doing wrong was using the same needle for more than one injection (taking 160 units Tresiba which means 2 injections so I just left the needle on for 2nd injection) and also not turning the needle to 2 units and ejecting air first. Now I have hardly any pain.
I am on Levemir the epi pen-insulin injection and yes I also inject in the belly. instead of other places like some people inject. With the epi pen I donot feel a thing. I donot even feel it go in. maybe you could ask your doctor about the epi pen. best of luck for you
Good morning everyone, don t forget to take your medicine on time
Thank you for the suggestion. I will look into it.
Hmm maybe the dose I am taking is too high for one needle maybe? Usually burns when I inject Victosa (1.8) or Lantus (56).
Thanks for the suggestion.

Something NEW For Basil Insulin Users??? Wouldn't It Be Nice If Your "nightly Insulin Injection" Was Only Required "Once A Week"??
