"The Flex Pen was much easier to use than the Flex Touch. I tend to bend the needle trying to inject the insulin with Flex Touch. It now takes 2 hands and much more pressure to inject."

"The new pens do not work. They move so slowly that I have to repress the trigger for each notch it delivers. I am afraid it is not giving me my dosage. I will have my doctor change my medication."

"Levemir worked well to control my blood sugar. But I got severe gastroparesis (diagnosed after 4 months of tests and ER visits) from it. I have been off of it for a week and am almost back to normal."
