That's about what
N does in me.
Novorapid is really whaling on me after 50 minutes, and [practically] gone after 1:15. Humalog was about 10-15 minutes slower, but felt like an adrenaline surge when it hit.
I knew that I was at the faster end of the insulin activity scale... but I guess that I'm an out-and-out freak.
The above applies when my BG is at/near normal levels. If I go high, things take about 2.5 times as long.
Lizzie, do you know if starting BG affects insulin activity speed? If so, perhaps what you ate "got ahead" of the Novorapid, which then took a lot longer to catch up.
