humalog

Hi Everyone I would really appreciate some advice! So it turns out I was misdiagnosed as T2 8 years ago and I am actually T1. Trying not to dwell on the late diagnosis side of things and just want to move forward! I have been on insulin previously during pregnancy as Metformin never agreed...

Hi All! I'm a T1 Diabetic of 30+ years. I don't have a pump for a variety of reasons (let's just say it's not a good option for me) so I use pens. At the moment I have the HumaPen Luxura HD from Lilly for my bolus, which allows you to dose in half units as I'm very sensitive to insulin. My...

Hello all, Had completely forgotten about this forum so was nice to find it again. I have had T1D for 13 years this year, my main issue is around being allergic to insulin. When I was first diagnosed I was on Novorapid and Lantus for around 4/5 years when I developed an allergy to Novorapid -...

New fast acting insulin announced. I am happy about this as I have always liked Humalog better and we did need a competitor to Fiasp. https://www.ptcommunity.com/wire/fda-approves-lyumjevtm-insulin-lispro-aabc-injection-lillys-new-rapid-acting-insulin

Hi all, new to the forums and 8 years as T1D. I have done a search with various buzzwords but not found the information or guidance that I need. Based in the UK so really only relevant to this country, I moved recently and got told by my doctors practice that I would need to register with...

Hello everybody, My mum is 65 years old and 90 Kg weight, she is taking Humalog (50/50) 3 times a day with these doses:(breakfast 42 / Launch 46 / Dinner 44 ? The issue is fasting BG is little bit high (220 Mg/Dl) and want to know if can mix Humalog (50/50) With Levimer to stablize BG...

Hi! I'm a new member and posting for my mum who is 84. She has had type one diabetes for over 30 years and after using Novorapid for so long she has just started using Humalog Mix 25. I wondered if anyone had any experience of not shaking the syringe and ending up with more fast acting than long...

Hello! I use both the 25/75 and 50/50 humalog pens. Which one of tgem has the most rapid acting insulin in it? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am hoping some people might be able to offer some advice. I am 27 and have had diabetes for 25 years. I am usually well controlled (especially in the past 5 years) however for the past few months I have been waking up with high blood sugars each morning. And I mean high- this...

Hi all, I am a T1 diabetic, and have been for 25 years. I am now well controlled (HbA1c is around 6.8%) and I currently use Humalog Lispro and Glargine for my management. Having done a DAFNE course I carb count for my quick acting insulin. I have recently moved abroad, and here you have to...

Hi all, I have recently moved from the UK to Costa Rica for a job for 2 years and I am struggling a little with my diabetic control. In the UK I was well controlled, minimal hypos and an HbA1c of 6.5 (when I left in June 2016). I have been Type 1 diabetic for 25 years, since I was 2 years old...

Ok, so I have been on Lantus and Humalog for some time now, possibly coming up to 5 years. Even though it was much better than my previous insulin regime (mixtard or whatever it is called now), I was having constant lows and highs at specific times of the day despite sussing out my carb counting...

I'm a T1 on Humalog (and Levemir) and have been for a few years. I was put on it after using Novorapid for some years and prior to that Actrapid. But whatever 'fast-acting' insulin I use, it seems to take hours, not minutes, to start to work. Does anyone else find this? My consultant is adamant...
