Hi,

I am 28 yrs old and Type 1 diabetic from past 15 yrs.
I was on Lantus (in Morning) and Metformin after every meal.
But from last one year, combination of Lantus and Metformin was ineffective and my doctor shifted me to short acting insulin.
From last one year I am taking Lantus(16-18 units morning) and Humalog (before every meal 5-8 units).
Because of this schedule of taking injection 4 times a day my skin has become so sensitive that even touch of the needle hurts. In addition to this I started putting on weight (loose mass). My diet and workout is almost same what it was a year back.

Is this something related to Humalog/Metformin?

Mann!!

I am using 31G(.25*6mm) needle.

@Richard: I think Insulin amount could be one of the reason because my Insulin intake has increased. I should keep a watch on carb intake and also exercise.

Thanks a lot !!
