Bolis needles, what measure do you like more and why?
10/02/2015 4:20 p.m.
Like everything in this life is a question of taste, I tell you that I personally come after using 6 mm mm pool needles that 8 mm are better.
It is obvious that they are larger than 6 mm but as I have become accustomed to them and have given me a better result so far.
.
In my case I agree with you, I have also used 6 mm and 8 mm, and I prefer the second to the first, among other things, because they make me less purple, they deteriorate less and when entering more into the skin, I think it avoidsLet some injected insulin come out and act before.: -BD

To me with the 6 mm they made me more packages and then total lack of control

I only for now in these two months the ones I use are 8 but when I punish me sometimes something comes out and that I only have 6 of Lantus.
@Aliciaalicia, keep the Embolo a few seconds before taking out the needle

Another that prefers those of 8. Those of 6 often do not penetrate my skin especially from the second use.
En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?
Why do you reuse them?If you give us needles so we only use them once

Basically for tiredness and fed up.
But they don't give me just.A bag of 25 every two months.I change it once for boli and even so sometimes I stay without.Anyway, I already say that even if they would give me a thousand, I would change it, I have been thus for 20 years and zero problems.

I do not return to 8mm or dead.
I have very little fat and those of 8 were torture.Even with those of 6 I have to click on pinch and at angle.
For colors.
With Maria we started with those of eight, but sometimes it hurt and a droplet of blood almost always came out.So in the last review we asked for shorter and gave us 5 mm.And as Artorias says, Maria also has to become pinch, and so and everything costs us, between thin and sport it does not have a gram of fat.
What his educator told us is that sometimes such short needles do not allow insulin to penetrate properly and the values are high.

I have only tried those of 8, which are the ones that were recommended in the endocrine and they do well.Well, everything good that can have to click your skin every day, of course.

Unless we are very very thin, adults recommend those of 8mm, 5 are too superficial and insulin is not well absorbed

I do not know, but it seems to me that 6-5 mm in a child can serve, but in an adult I doubt that no matter how thin it is unless it has a fatty percentage of less than 5% I doubt that insulin is absorbed well.As for the pinch, it is supposed to be what they recommend, it is not that you have to take it for facilitating the puncture.

Well, nothing, insulin does not absorb me well with the 6mm because you say it.That's why I have been today below 120, after eating a kebab with fried potatoes.
That you don't work for something well does not mean that the rest does not.How difficult it is different on this forum.
Well, 5 mm are much better.I have no bruises, they hurt less and they do not affect me in the subcutaneous absorption of insulin.And I am not superdelined (although it has already lost 11 kilos from the diagnosis).I don't know, there are as many types of diabetes as diabetics.
