I read somewhere that some people find injecting less painful if you keep the pen you are using OUT of the fridge. Think it's just a case of getting used to what works for you. You can also ask your doctor about changing the make of needles on your pen. If I were you I would also ask about a pump, but seeing as you are in the UK, it is unlikely you will get funding. I was recently told I could have one if I wanted to self finance it.

Good Luck, and I am sure injections will become easier.
