Picores for insulin

I've been with this problem for a while: when I shed the insulin, I almost immediately makes a red bulk that later lasts days, and it bites me a lot.Talled with the nurse-educational and with the endocrine, they both look at me as if they saw a Martian and do not seem to be too casewith the same result (intense itching in the area), and then with not putting anything ... and more of the same.

The worst of all is that it has already happened to me twice that almost at the time of taking out the needle (from the belly) the itching expands at full speed through the body and it is somewhat intense and desperate ... it is wanting to start theskin (not bromeo).

I do not know if I am doing something wrong, but the "normal" itching, that of the red bulge is in every puncture, and I don't know what to do.The insulin that injects me is Humalog (slow and fast together).In recent days and after the puncture, I put on "Avene Xera Calm" cream and it seems that something relieves, but does not avoid that itching.

Do you think of something to avoid it?Thank you so much.

Try to change insulin, to me the lantus and the toujeo give me allergy and I came out rancitas throughout my body was to change to threeiba and disappeared completely

I was going to tell you the same as @diabestico
They had to remove the Levemir ... I got lumps in the injection zone ... They did not bite, they hurt, they were hard inflammations to the touch ... I had a very bad time.
The first insulin in 30 years that gave me reaction ...

Thanks for your comments.I will tell my endocrine again ... although until September I have no new appointment, and tell the educator again ... I am not sure because I don't think she can change it to me.

I don't get alcohol or anything before.They told me to do so, directly without cleaning before.🤷

Tell the educator.She can communicate it to the endocrine and authorize another insulin in the recipe.
They did so with me once.I used Novorapid, the educator proposed to the endocrine to go to Humalog Junior because of the half units, thus, on the march, and he included him in the recipe.
My educator is a love, tries to "camplete" to yours, it is very hard to endure like this until September.And if not, maybe the family doctor can give you a hand and prescribe him.

Thanks again.

With the endocrine I have consultation in September;With the educator at the last of July ... so I have it complicated.

Well, ask for an appointment with the header but not fiery like that.

@Chesana see the endocrine without appointment and comment.
Surely for that they happen to you and make you a hole.
Maybe now they give you itching, but it goes to "older" ...

@CHESANA, you can even go to your ambulatory or call your hospital, to give you an urgent telephone with your endocrine.
Explain what happens.Allergies are no nonsense.

It looks allergic reaction
The header can prescribe and also derive endocrine.They serve you in 2 days.
Try other insulins.

I have asked for an appointment with the header but have given me for 2.5 weeks (there is not a single hole).

To try other insulins ... I guess the only one who can change it will be the endocrine ... I say.

No, Head Medicine also recipes.The DT2 with insulin recipe them, I prescribe the header when the electronic recipe is over and when I came displayed.
You can tell you that it gives you allergy and that you know other brands or insulin and propose them.With him no, you already have.

If the prescription is by endocrine you can doubt about professional ethics, but as it gives you allergy you can prescribe another brand and also wants to prescribe, request an emergency specialist.
