| I was where you are a few months ago; pills weren't getting the job done, my doc added lantus, that wasn't enough either, and now I am on novolog as well. I have to say it is much easier than I thought it would be and eating a balanced diet has become manageable. For me, insulin has been the key to getting my BG under control; if my next A1c agrees with my meter averages I think I will be quite happy, my last A1c was something like 8.9 and I am hoping my next will be in the mid 6 range (I could do better but it's a start!) I go in next Monday for a blood draw.
