[Diabetes-talk] Fw: Insulin pen study at the NFB Convention

[Tamera]

 not sure if your supplementing my question to Mike.. yep, each unit is a 
click but seems it might be of some  help to write  a testimony so to speak, 
and send to person who is conducting this panel/research of our personal 
experiences using these pens?
