I’m not real happy with this insulin at this point, but I AM a guinea pig, and I’m not real sure it is a problem.<\/p>\n
BUT I’ve had to up my carb ratios from 10-1 to 8-1 and from 9-1 to 7-1. I’ve also had to up my correction factor from 32 to 26.<\/p>\n
I’ve also had to increase all my basal rates by .1 units. <\/p>\n
That all means I’m taking more insulin. Like I said though, I’m not sure it is a problem, since I’m comparing Apples to Oranges. In other words, the reason that this insulin takes more insulin, is that it is not quite as effective as Novolog.<\/p>\n
Note: don’t take this gospel, your mileage may indeed vary, but it does show that all insulins are not quite equal.<\/p>\n
It does seem to work faster in the long run though, which I think is a good thing.<\/p>\n
Other good things: Sites last much longer. A good thing, since I am sending more insulin through the site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
