Since I went on a pump “vacation” back in February, I have been using Lantus/Novolog with decent results. However, one of the downsides has been leakage from the injection site. This tends to happen if you pull the pen away from the skin too early (the pen is still releasing insulin for several seconds after it clicks done).
However, for some reason I feel like I am getting a little more leakage than what is normal and my precision boluses that I used on the pump are getting bumped up 10-15% to cover leakage (this is true to both my Lantus and Novolog).
Experienced leakage woes? Just another part of living life as a diabetic and playing with the numbers.
