At my last hospital appointment, I asked if the doctor thought that 5mm (instead of the 8mm I had been using) might be better. She said to try them and see what I thought. I now have a box, and have been using them for a couple of days. Since I started with them, I have been constantly lowish or hypo (except after treating my hypos when I have gone up a bit).
I am wondering if this is common when you change your needle length. Has anyone else experienced this? (I sort of thought it might make the absorption more even, but not that it would change the amount of insulin so much.)
