    Could this be a game changer?

    Hmm I got very confused lol. When I looked on my feed it took me to this Page 3 instead of the full Thread lol so thought some how I had created a completely new Thread. Had my anxiety go wild lol. But then realized it was page 3. So obviously not as clever as I thought lol

    Could this be a game changer?

    Yes I read all that when I was looking it up. Was just my short summary to a rather large subject. I'm just hoping that they can get round the issues of the autoimmune nature of the disease. I believe they are getting closer to achieving this but there is the issues you pointed out. I believe...

    Could this be a game changer?

    Everyone is different, difference in how we manage either T1 or T2, IR, Exercise, Eating and how our individual bodies react to all of this. For T1's we all differ in how various Insulins work and therefore use various types of Insulin. We will all react differently when diagnosed with T1 or T2...

    Could this be a game changer?

    Research is in the early stages so not sure how long before it will get FDA approval. Lets hope the extra funding shifts this research into high speed.

    Hba1c dropped 10 points in 12 weeks - need help understanding

    Although I would imagine having a higher BG is not good while having any infection as the bacteria or germs will thrive on the higher BG

    Hba1c dropped 10 points in 12 weeks - need help understanding

    Wow Agreed it's all confusing. No idea what the reason's are but if, in my no medical knowledge, I may suggest. I believe it may have something to do with how your body is using the higher blood sugars. If your BG is high and not using it for energy or fighting any infections, it will stay...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    @CheeseSeaker Wow Thanks Fantastic, I am still looking at the various curves to work out whether to try the Lyumjev. But from what you have experienced has made me more interested in it. The Fiasp works very similar to the NovoRapid unless, by accident, I inject it into a muscle which then it...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    Sounds fantastic. I can only wish I had your energy lol. Before I turned 30, I was always very active playing Rugby, Squash, Swimming, Scuba Diving, MotoX, etc. but then my energy levels dropped excessively after I started working in design, sitting behind a computer 12 hours a day often 7 days...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    I thought my Carb intake was low, that's impressive. Would be interested to know if you survive your day with such low Carbs. I walk almost every day at least 2km to help my elderly mother. If I don't get my normal 38 Carbs for Breakfast I find it almost exhausting. I agree with the low Carb...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    Oh yes. I started doing that many years ago. Presently I'm using 8 different sections of my stomach and 5 different sections of my upper thigh on both legs. The DSN suggested my bum and upper arm. Tried my bum which is very difficult to do as I'm a chicken, so have to use my finger to locate...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    Thanks. Yes I know the Liver pumping out sugars and alas also know from experience lol that drinking alcohol stops that from happening due over working it trying to remove the alcohol. No this slow reaction, if it can be called an issue, happens morning and evening and sometimes during mid day...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    Hi @In Response Yes, the NHS / Doctors Surgery sent a letter stating they were changing the NovoRapid to Trurapi and I switched to Trurapi soon after. After using the Trurapi for a few months, I found it was taking much longer for it to start working so spoke to the Doctor and was switched...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    @EllieM I've just taken a closer look at the Link you posted. That's exactly what I was looking for, so thankyou. Looking at the chart, I'm starting to think I'm understanding the times incorrectly. When I look at the Chart and the peak is less than 1 hour, I was understanding it to mean that...

    Insulin Reaction Curves

    Hi Thanks, I was only googling name reaction curve lol. Will do the profile next time. My BG can vary a fair bit between 4 and 10 but sometimes goes plus or minus either end. I had thought about the different BG values and done a lot of testing around either end of the scale. I've always worked...
