Informative Speech On Diabetes

I was diagnosed with diabetes since 2005. I was in a great deal of denial. The doctor place me on insulin. I never took the medicine so my diabetes worsen of the years. Now that it has worsen I currently take metformin and an injection of insulin every day of my life. About three months ago I had a life altering experience. My diabetes is now under control and I am now trying to conceive children from my husband. So now that I inject myself every day I will tell you the steps of how to properly inject yourself of insulin.
First, you want to gather your insulin supplies. You would want to select a clean, dry, work area, and gather your bottle of insulin, sterile insulin syringe, two alcohol wipes, and sharps container. Wash your hands with soap and warm water thoroughly for at least 30 seconds then dry them with a clean towel. I personally don’t rub my hands
Air bubbles in the syringe will not harm you if they are injected, but they can reduce the amount of insulin in the syringe. From my experience if there are air bubbles in the syringe once I inject the insulin I have gas on the stomach for about three to four hours. To remove air bubbles, tap the syringe so the air bubbles rise to the top and push up on the plunger to remove the air bubbles. Recheck the dose and add more insulin to the syringe if necessary.
Remove the needle from the insulin bottle. Importantly, this must be an exact measurement. If you withdraw too much cloudy insulin, the total dosage in the syringe must be discarded. Be careful not to push any of the clear insulin from the syringe into the cloudy insulin. If there are large air bubbles after mixing the insulin in the syringe, discard this dosage and start the procedure again. Do not push the insulin back into the bottle.
Fourth, you are now ready to inject the insulin. Choose an injection site for your insulin shot. Do not inject near joints, the groin area, navel, the middle of the abdomen, or near
