You might be right about when to bolus Jason. I was thinking of how fast one goes into DKA if there's a set problem and was wondering if that also would speed up slightly. Don't think so as
it appears so similar to Insulins Lispro that it should be very similar. I've had a couple of quicksets that have broken, one during sleeping hours so by the time I awoke I was well into DKA.
Had a ketone of 2.6 and a bgs of 25 mmol/L but when I gave a shot of insulin my bgs shot up to 33.5. I was getting close to having a cordial greeting by my meter "HI". <smile>

I had trouble with Humalog insulin so am not sure about the ecoli
growth it's made up from. I'll stick with Novorapid for now as I
don't seem to have as many problems with it. Always wondered about things grown in ****<smile>.

Lots of rules getting clearance for Apidra Pens too.
Thanks for posting all the websites for Apidra-it was real interesting reading.

Gool luck on getting a pump. It makes my life a lot easier however
I never did get a letter from my endo. They make promises and
then don't deliver here just like the insurance company.
I'm quite upset about this as you can probably tell. You would think that the money was coming out of the docs pocket but
instead he's making it come out of mine and it hurts without getting the letter for coverage. You would think that after having Diabetes for 43 years a doc would have a little more compassion for me. I feel like this: wre[pikt4p[k 4eojf[p1 o3 [2ke and my doc
can put that on his toast and eat it too.*g*

I wonder if he knows that I work for the doctor who is the head of the medical association here. <smile>
