[QUOTE="smidge, post: 813027, member: 29301"] Hi Lucy! Oh dear what a pain. I forgot to shake the Insuman once - it worked a lot quicker and was out of my system too quickly - I went a bit low as it all sort of worked in one go - not as fast as rapid, but maybe more like a short-acting and then it was gone, so my BG started to rise and I was too scared to take any more, so I left it and ended up higher than usual. No harm done though. On such small doses I'm sure you'll be fine - just keep testing. I expect it will be out of your system in a few hours. Not sure, but I think the clear liquid might be the insulin and the milky stuff is the particles used to slow-down the absorption and turn it into a longer-acting insulin - so if you don't mix it, you get the clear liquid without the slowing-down stuff.
