  • you have to shake novomix

  • Ohh mein Gott wie arm sowas in Youtube rein zu stellen ...

  • there is no need for that dye stuff, just stick it straight in, it doenst hurt that much

  • Absolutely never shake your insulin or you're going to denaturate it. Insulin is a peptide hormone. By shaking it you're going to break the chemical bonds affecting its tertiary and secondary structure. This guy is doing something wrong.

  • OMG this takes very long. hahah

  • Simply Basic =D

  • they sell pentips in china too?

  • Sure they do, not just all lenghts from all brands.

  • im in China rite now and i brought all my pentips from Canada via airplane. so do u noe if they hab BG brand size 6? or size 5?

    thanks, it wud be a lot of help

  • The guy in this video is a friend of mine. I'm not in China now, but he is. And if I remember it right he said he'd seen the 5mm BD ones but not the 6mm Novofines.

  • This is complete BS. I've been diabetic and have given myself insulin shots for 3 years. It takes me exactly 10 seconds, (from beginning to end) to give myself one shot. This guy took 7 minutes?? is he for real??

  • Because he was showing us the steps, thats probably why he went so slow..

  • My thoughts/prayers are with everyone!

    Please Google:

    Essiac Diabetes

    and/or

    Complete Rene Caisse Essiac Video

  • Sorry but thats total BS. Until proven I'm sticking with my insulin. (Although I don't take 7 mintues like this fool). You must clearly not be a diabetic if you're advising this Essiac shit. Just another gimmick from a company who IMO shouldn't be allowed to trade. Sorry has to get my point across there. These unproven treatments could potentially KILL someone.

  • great video. i tend to inject into my stomach. i dont feel as much pain.

  • At first when i saw this video i was thinking "what's taking all day?" but i do think it's very detailed and quite ok picture quality, so it could be a bit of a guide for newbies. I have had T1 for little more than 2.5 years now, tried both pens and pump and i prefer pens! The novopen rocks! As for the time... I change cartridge and inject in 2 minutes :P

    And a question to lovetide1: Is this very soon after diagnosis?

  • dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd­

  • zod shut up if u dont have anything good to say dont say anything

  • get a life

  • From now, I begin to use NovoMix 30 instead of Novolin 30R. NovoMix 30 can be injected right before meal, no waiting needed, so it's very convenient.

  • im 16 years old and i have diabetes for almost 13 years..

    it really sucks!!

    i have to take insulin 4 times a day

    and i take my insulin in my legs..it doesnt hurt that much in your legs

  • What the heck is up with the betadyne and the giant swabs? those must cost way more to get your hands on than a regular alcohol swab.

    Anyway, you should never shake a mix of insulin, you should roll it, because you create bubbles, but you shook the hell out of it, and then waited like, eleven years, til the two insulins were no longer blended.

    That was annoying.

  • Maybe this can also help youtube[dot]com/watch?v=JojpYb­jA7iE to minimize the risk of getting a diabetes.. already helped many people... or visit alphalipid[dot]net/download.ht­m

  • 3. It is totally fine to inject fast, at least with such small doeses as 10 units.

    4. Try to re-use the needles as little as possible- they go blunt and can harm you both with the bluntness and risk for bacterial infection.

    5. If on a mix insulin... Try to go onto MDI if possible, that gives more control since you can give extra shots if needed to correct a high reading or if you want to enjoy something special :)

  • Hmm after studying this clip quite a few times... I can come with some advices...

    1. Do not shake insulin- just rolling the pen between your hands is enough for the insulin to mix, shaking it can do more harm than good.

    2. Try to pinch some more bodyfat to inject into- in this clip it even looks rather painful.

  • I was diagnosed on 12-11-2004 w/ type 1. yep. Shots really suck. You should really get a pump. They are MUCH better.

  • :O You gotta be kidding! You were diagnosed just 3 days after me! :O October 14th 2004 for me :P

    Are you using some "novomix" insulin? I'm on novorapid and levemir :) Inject 4-7 times everyday, but it doesn't really bother me :)

    And a question to lovetide1: Is this very soon after diagnosis?

  • Hi UpNorthS:

    I was diagnosed as type 1 along with diabetic ketoacidosis(DKA;糖尿病酮症酸中毒) syndrome at 2004.10.17(year.month.day), I created this video about half a year ago by a 30,0000(30万) pixels web camera and posted it here(youtube) in the same day.

  • im borderlind ditabetic 2 i just use my pricker. lol i dont need insulin injected.

  • wow.. 7+ min for one shot! New world record folks! :-P

  • I don't inject anymore, i have an insulimpump and i would tell ya. You will just push a button before you eat and dont use the needle and find a spot to inject.

  • Dude i have diabeties 2 Isluin love brother!

  • I also have a pump (Deltec Cozmo), and OMG are shots barbaric! GO FOR A PUMP DUDE!!!

  • I also have a novonordisk pen, but mine's for injecting Novolog, not Novolin. Mine is a NovoPenJr, and they come in yellow and green. They're called juniors because they go up in half units.

    Let go of the pinch once the needle is in.

  • wat does it do can any 1 tell me in english

  • clean ur finger nails

  • haha i was gonna say that too..

  • Is that true that diabetics turn to heavy IV drugs easily, ya know, cuz of the experience with needles?

    I wonder where insulin made in China really comes from...

  • The model of insulin which I used is "Novolin 30R" which is a brand of Novonordisk company(Denmark), Novonordisk has a manufactory in TianJin city of China. You can locate TianJin city from map by looking for the neighbor city of BeiJing, the capital of China.

  • 1: never shake the insulin like that , only roll it between your hand

    2: wait only for 5 to 10 sec

  • also shouldn't recap with the inside needle cap.

  • Do you believe that I and others chinese diabetics will reuse one needle for 20+ times? For me, one needle will continue to use until the penfill is empty (12+ days, 24+ injections).

  • I dont think you should be using the same needle 20 times like that, it's very unclean and you have on your self to blame if you get an infection fomr doing that. Are you that poor that you have to use the one needle over and over again? Are the Chinese government that cruel to you all over there?

  • 1: never shake the insulin like that , only roll it between your hand

    2: wait only for 5 to 10 sec

  • I saw the nurce shake like that when I in hospital, so, I just follow them...

  • i had this pen before, but never found that insulin for it. so i just use normal injections. the whole process takes me well, 10 sec.

  • i am diabetic too.

    well first u shudnt shake the insulin like that. i think its written in the label.

    second, y u wait too long to insert, just stick it in.

    and y u wait all that to pull. its says only 6 sec, i think.

  • I want to make the insulin more even, so I shake the insulin like that. Will the shake harmfull to insulin ?

  • yea its harmful. when u shake violently the insulin crystalizes and becomes less functional. shake it carefully. :)
