I&#8217;ve been reading, especially Diabetic Solutions, which wanted patients to use a faster asking insulin.<\/p>\n<p>Come to find out, my doctor didn&#8217;t know he could prescribe it!  When I asked about it today &#8212; it&#8217;s the first time that I haven&#8217;t had more pressing matters, he said, that&#8217;s a really good idea, i&#8217;ll have to look it up &#8212; he did, and I have it now.<\/p>\n<p>Only problem is that it looks exactly like the 75\/25 mix pen.  I&#8217;m going to email Lilley and suggest they go with a different colored cap, or at least make them available.<\/p>\n<p>What I have done, is take a sharpie and mark the cap with my sliding scale.  I have also marked it with date, since I probably won&#8217;t use a full pen in a month.<\/p>\n<p>So you just have to ask questions.<\/p>\n<p>Also, we&#8217;re switching from Nexxium to Protonix, since ever since I gained the insulin weight I&#8217;ve been having trouble with gastric reflux again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[object] The moral of the story is to ASK questions.
