Also to have an cellulitis which may be pink. There are just not alot of large blood vessels in the skin where you inject. Do you pull back before releasing the insulin? One is supposed to do that.

Some people develop a deterioration of the fat layer, with repeated injections.

I'd have a doctor look at it. Maybe you could get off the injections now? Also consider the Glumetza...metformin without the horrible GI diarrhea.

What do you mean PULL BACK BEFORE RELEASING THE INSULIN??

I always stick the needle in, push the plunger, count to ten, take it out.

This is not correct??
