Congratulations........everything will be fine, its clear you may be a bit more anxious, but all that means is you will be making extra effort to keep stable, which in the long term, is good......

Any change in basal should be accompanied by a full basal test...... Did you do this?

The dosing will be the issue.......most of us type ones calculate our doses with precision, so a pill might not do the job as effectively..... If they could coat the insulin molecules in some kind of substance that broke down as levels increased and vice versa, that might be better...

Ha ha, its just a wee bit metallic.... I seem to think that the saliva actually helps close up the hole quicker, but that might just be me fantasizing.......;)

Decent choice....;)

I assume you're talking about blood from a previous prick, as opposed to just rupturing a vessel with nothing but the power of your squeeze....lol....
