I may be able to try one and have heard it hurts to put in. I use a pump and have used flex pens and was wondering how much worse it could be?

Thanks! I will give a try for sure!
Thanks! It is helpful to know that you don't see the needle- it is a god idea to check out youtube! I never woudl have thought of that!
Just inserted my second one. First didn't even feel, this one I felt but wouldn't describe it as a "hurt" My pens hurt more.
I can handle this I think! If it means better control I will bite the bullet and do it! Thanks for your support!
Oh yes.....Im finding out stuff in my diabetic life that I wouldnt have known any other way. just remember not to focus on the number of you BG, but rather the overall trend. Thats what will reap the benefits for you. Otherwise you will overcorrect everytime......or at least I did.
