    Is it possible there are different sized pins for insulin? If all are 1ml pins and it has 5 ticks then 1/5th of an iu. But if 10 ticks then 1/10th?

    no your not understand us. On a 1ml slin pin there are 10 numbers 1,2,3,4,. We are talking about the lines in between the numbers.
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    Sorry bout that, so are you saying that each number on the pin would be 10iu of what would normally be insulin in that 1ml syringe? Once mine arrive I think I'll be revisiting this thread to make sure of my measurement
