250??? holy chit!..Talk to your endocrinologist about Actos..that's suppose to help with Insulin resistance..I take 30mg/day of that too...

I shoot up with Lantus..once in the morning 30 units and once at bedtime 25units..the Apidra just before every meal and depends on what or who I'm eating determines how much (approx 15 to 25 units each meal)itis fast acting like the Humalog (same class of insulin, different maker)

BTW; Remember it is best to ***** you finger and not the other way around..

 

I knew the panceas had something to do with digestion, that explains it. I have no gallbladder, common byle duct, pancreatic duct...I basically have a big ole hollow spot where everything should be.

Yea my insulin regimen sucks, I take 60 units of 70/30 in the am and 60 units before bed. I take 40 units of humalog in the morning and4 times more throughout the day and 30 units at night unless my sugar levels are high then I take 50. So on average I take a total of 320 units a day. If I don't eat it will drop to 200-250, if I eat a big meal it will go up to over 400 units. My problem is that because I have no pancreas at all my body is actually producing glucose, for example my sugar is normally around 250-280 when I go to sleep, when I wake up even though I took insulin before bed my sugar will be around 350 in the morning. I haven't had a day where I averaged under 225 since this all happened to me in 1998. My doctor is afraid that I am going to lose my eyesight and possibly limbs, especially now that I have Diabetic Neuropathy in my hands and feet. Thats why he wants me to get a pancreatic transplant asap.
