Follow-up: A partial dose because the pen emptied mid-injection

Picking up post #2: that is the part I would want checked first.

Angle of injection: 90 degrees into pinched tissue ensures subcutaneous placement. It is not always necessary and shallower angles can work, but 90 degrees into a small pinch is the safest technique to learn first.

Injecting into an area that has become firm: lipohypertrophy — thickened fatty tissue from repeated injection in one area — changes local tissue absorption. Avoid injecting into areas that are noticeably firm or lumpy and allow those areas to recover for at least a few months.

I read post #6 twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite.

Air bubbles in a subcutaneous injection: the honest risk assessment is low. Tiny air bubbles in subcutaneous tissue do not behave like an air embolism in a blood vessel. A few air bubbles are not a reason to restart the entire injection.

Cold solution and stinging: warming the vial in your hands for a minute before injection reduces the stinging sensation substantially. This is the simplest thing to try if injections are uncomfortable.

Practical note that does not fit anywhere else. Whatever you conclude from this topic, write down what you did and when. The single most useful thing in your own records is not any individual result; it is that they are dated and consecutive.
