[QUOTE="JMK1954, post: 2350941, member: 352098"] Hi and welcome to the forum. I also lost all hypo symptoms with the original introduction of so-called Human insulin in the 1980s, but switched back to animal insulin as soon as this was permitted by my hospital clinic after around 6 years. My hypo warning symptoms were back to normal after a couple of weeks, contrary to what the hospital clinic doctor had expected. There must be a reason for gaining so much weight. Have you had your thyroid function checked recently ? This would only involve a straightforward blood test. Thyroid problems ran in my mother's family, so I have had several relatives who put on weight for this reason. From what you say, it might be worth a conversation with your GP. [/QUOTE]
