| how much insulin? Anyone out there use a lot of insulin? I think I take quite a bit,but I don't know if that's normal after having it for 37 yrs. I take 60 nph in morning and 30 to 40 reg. Before supper,I take 30 u. of reg. And before bed i take another 60 u of nph. My dr. doesn't seem to think it' s unusual,but,I am going to start taking symlin,so that should cut that down.I am overweight,but she says insulin makes you fat. That sounds silly to me. My diabetes is completely out of control,last one read 10.2. I hope I can take symlin with having heart disease (taking meds and all),guess they'll mix,I don't know yet.Going to start symlin the 16th of nov. wish me luck! |
