It seems to me that even top consultants believe what the Pharma reps tell them about new insulin and think it will do the same for all.... but it doesn't!
I will let you know if they come up with any better alternatives, but I am going to try and question the manufacturers, before I accept them!
I have very small doses of insulin usually 8 for breakfast, 8 for lunch and between 8 and 10 for dinner, but then I have 14 units of Lantus ( the long acting insulin) when I go to bed.
I will send you a pm to let you know what I am using when they can find one that suits me!
