Hasta La Ideas

Chris Hillios has diabetes. Chris Hillios needs daily injections, which he has to administer himself. This would not have been a problem, had Chris not also been a little insecure and shy when it came to pricking his skin with a syringe. His invention, the Confidisc, is a plastic disc to be placed over the needle of a syringe. The thought is that if you do not see the the needle entering your body, you will be less nervous. This may seem like another case of snake-oil, but Chris Hillios, says the disc reduces the perception of pain which in turn makes the patient more confident and less prone to mistakes, thus reducing the risk of bent needles, failed injection, etc.brbr
