Hello, Thanks for the query.
Madam, blood glucose is tested in the following manner: Fasting- early morning before taking anything in the morning that is tea or any other food. Usually 10 hours after dinner. Taking Insulin injection has nothing to with that.
PP (after food)- this is done 2 hours after taking food. For this patient has to take whatever medicine he or she has been asked to take for controlling blood glucose.
Third is any time of the day known as Random blood glucose.more

Which Huminsulin, is it premix, or Long acting, it depends on that. Because Apidra is short acting meal time insulin. I assume that Huminsulin is long acting N preparation, if that is the case, still your lunch time insulin cover may not be there. If your blood sugars and HbA1c is under control and they are no episodes of hypoglycemia that is low blood sugar, it is fine. For further queries book an appointment.

Skin for most people is around 2.7 to 3 mm in thickness. So with 4 mm needles pinching might not be necessary since without pinching also the Insulin would enter subcutaneous tissue and not muscle tissue.
