Q&A: When treating Diabetes with Alpida is it possible to numb the area before injecting?
Question by Dembi: When treating Diabetes with Alpida is it possible to numb the area before injecting?
I found out yesterday that I had type 1 Diabetes, I'm 16 and afraid of needles, I inject myself 4 times a day now and I have already done four of them, today I couldn't bring myself to do it and needed someone else to inject me, so I wondered if I could numb the area first.
Any information would be great, this is all very new to me.
Thanks

Answer by Miz Lamb
Oh, please get over the fear of needles. Find a psychologist, psychiatrist, hypnotist, any type of mind altering doctoring to help you. Yes, you are not alone but you have no choice in this!!!
I find it much easier to never allow someone else to do any injection for me!! Including the annual flu jab or the occasional other jab!!
Get the 31 gauge needles and lancet points. These are so fine you can almost see them so they make the smallest holes in your hide possible at this time.
Pinch your skin tightly for a minute. Then lay the needle on it and slide it in. If you feel it, move over a tiny bit.
YES!! YOU CAN DO THIS!!! I DO!! but I don't find it necessary to numb the area as if it hurts it means I have hit a nerve, so I move over a bit. Some days I have to change sites entirely as I am much too sensitive where I had planned to inject.
I upset some of my friends sometimes. I refuse to go to a restroom to inject when out in public. A friend of mine and I had dinner not long ago. We both waited for our plates to be delivered to the table then grabbed our gear to inject. We both got the giggles because we each thought the other would vacate to inject. But the only people who noticed were thinking we were having a happy party!
I repeat: YOU CAN DO THIS!

Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ - Type 1 Diabetes Cure - Is it Possible?
Diabetes mellitus type 1, otherwise known as juvenile diabetes, is not an ailment exclusively associated with children. Though it was mistaken so formerly, its prevalence has been proven in adults also. It is true that many adults who acquire type 1 diabetes mellitus are at times misdiagnosed with type 2 diabetes due to misconception of the characteristic nature of diabetes type I. Whatever be the type, it is an autoimmune disease that destroys beta cells in the pancreas. This results in non-production of insulin needed for the body to convert the blood glucose into energy. Non-secretion of insulin causes elevated blood glucose levels, and the excess sugar finds its way out with more frequent urination than normal. Although the cause of type 1 diabetes symptoms is not yet clearly understood, it damages the immune system. Such a condition is lethal if not treated properly with extra care.
Isn't possible that type 1 diabetes cure can be achieved by pursuing natural medications? Of course, you can. But the risk is the elongated course of medicines with no certainty to cure diabetes mellitus. However, by administering exogenous insulin by injection or by any other latest methods, chance can be enhanced for rejuvenating the beta cells in the pancreas to start functioning. Recently, pancreas transplants are recommended for acute condition. It's true that type 1 diabetes treatment options are fruitless with traditional methods of treating diabetes.
In spite of astonishing technology getting entry in the medical field, type 1 diabetes cure still remains an illusion. There is low chance for clinical preventive medicine therapy to fight against and beat unwarranted type 1 diabetes though a vaccine has been tested. Most of the type 1 diabetics who were initially healthy in the days past, can currently lose weight fast dreadfully, if not diagnosed in time promptly.
It is known that type 2 diabetes cure is possible by eating healthy diabetic diet foods and exercising daily. But type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented so, as it is purely insulin dependent diabetes. However, it can be managed to some extent by giving treatment with oral medications, and daily insulin injections, in many cases, along with daily exercise and change in lifestyle.

Controlling Diabetes is Possible by Learning the ?Secrets to Blood Glucose Control?
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) July 29, 2005
Controlling Diabetes is Possible by Learning the Â?Secrets to Blood Glucose Control.Â?
Diabetes In Control.com has just released a new Audio/Video Educational Program Â?Secrets to Blood Glucose ControlÂ? by Dr. Richard K. Bernstein, author of two best selling books, Diabetes Solution and Diabetes Diet, published by AOL/TimeWarner.
Diabetes is becoming an epidemic and the CDC states that Â?One Out of Three People Born 2002 and Later Will Get DiabetesÂ? More then 60% of those diagnosed with diabetes today are not in control and are at risk for developing the complications of diabetes as kidney failure, blindness and limb amputation, according to the American Diabetes Association.
Dr. Bernstein, considered an expert and forefather of Glucose Control, has helped tens of thousands of people with diabetes, and has just released a 6-hour audio CD complete education program and guide to achieving normal blood sugars, titled Â?Secrets to Normal Blood SugarsÂ? recorded separately for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
Now you can listen and learn from Dr. Bernstein, how to control your diabetes at home or in your car. For the first time a doctor with diabetes has produced a 6-hr audio and video program that teaches you how to control your diabetes and lose weight. Learn about the foods to stay away from, how to make your own snacks and even how to test your foods at restaurants to see if they contain carbohydrates. Watch Dr. Bernstein as he teaches you how to give a painless injection, if you use insulin. You will listen to Dr. Bernstein negotiate a meal plan and have samples of meal plans and recipes in the special manual that comes with the CDs.
The program is available at www.diabetes911.net. Where you can go and listen to parts of the program and see testimonials from doctors and patients from all over the world, and understand why it is so different then everything you have read or heard about diabetes.
From Dr. David Leonardi in Las Vegas, Â?Never has there been a work so thorough, accurate, understandable and most importantly, effective. He's encompassed the entire topic so effectively that no question is left unanswered. There is no doubt that this program will save thousands of lives. For the first time in history, a diabetic who follows Dr. Bernstein's advice will have the opportunity to live beyond the average life expectancy as he or she will be far healthier than the average non-diabetic. This book is an essential component to the library of every diabetic and every physician who cares for diabetics.
