Hi Joel!

You are listed as a Type-2 and taking medications to increase insuin sensitivity. On what basis was the Type-2 diagnosis made? I am particularly interested in the C-Peptide levels (1 being low-normal and 5 being high-normal). If you haven't had this checked, you might want to do so as you may be mis-diagnosed.

I note a rather dramatic drop in you A1c numbers -- how did you accomplish that?

You did repeat my question about timing and dosage for supplamental insulin injections -- perhaps somebody will step forward on that question.

I'll throw one more into the mix -- what is the shelf life of insulin?
