| There is Humalog, Novolog, and Apidra. Apidra is suppose to be the #1 recommended for pumpers but it's generally a tier 3 insulin whereas Humalog and Novolog are tier 2 on most insurance carriers. I have heard of people having terrible success with one or two of the priors and then miracles with the other(s).
My question for you though is have you ever done basal testing? That is where you skip meals and test every 30 minutes. You should not go up or down at all (within say maybe 10 mg/dl total) during the time period. If you do, then a change in basal needs to be made.
