After participating in a chat last week on insulin pumpers (if you are a member, the transcript is available), I decided to perform 2 Symlin experiments.<\/p>\n
The first was NOT prompted by anything anyone said. It was prompted by the fact that I’m a Type 2, I’ve been dealing with heavier insulin resistance and lots of hunger problems. That said, I decided to up my dosage to 25 units. No adverse effects and my blood sugar is smoother.<\/p>\n
This WAS prompted by the discussion. I’ve been kicking around this idea for quite some time, and since someone did suggest it in the chat and found it working, I decided to try it too. I put in an extra infusion set on Sunday and I’m using it to put Symin in. I’ve got it more accessible than I usually put it and plan to change it out on Sunday. It eliminated the “ick” factor of injections, although it still burns because of the ph problem. Of course, I take that as meaning it is working.<\/p>\n
So far, it’s been really good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
