Insulin injection device - what do you use?

I know there are several people on here who are on insulin.

I was just curious as to what type of pen (or even syringe - some people do still use them

) you use?

I am (until my humapen memoir comes through) using a humapen luxura with 8mm needles.

And I use lantus solostart disposable pens for my long-term insulin.

I use the humapen luxura too.

I have 3 different pens, a Novo Victosa, Lantus Solo star, & a Novapen 3. All use the Unifine pen tips. I use the 12mm needles, it allows the insulin to penetrate deeper. I did use the Optipen Pro 1, before the Solo star.

The hospital switched me to 4mm needles last week. Nice. Well they seem to be anyway
