Awesome - let us know how you get on.It's avaliable here (uk) already. I have an appointment this week with the diabetic nurse to talk me through it properly and change me over to using it rather than nova rapid. Still have to inject last us tho. It only replaces the short acting not the long.

It has passed it. I'm in Cardiff. Apparently they want to try to aim it more at kids who find injecting too much. I have quite bad lipothrophy (not sure if I split that right) I mean the hard lumps u get where u inject. I've tried rotating sites and I use the 3mm baby needles but I find it really hurts everywhere except my belly. So I think now the insulin isn't being absorbed very well. So after a good old moan at the docs I got referred to the diabetic nurse to put me onto it ☺ I will let u know how it goes

What do you mean correctable? I'm on Novorapid, but I'm not sure what you mean that Humalog is unpredictable? Can you give me an example?
Btw, what's the action time of the inhaled insulin? On Novo I find it to be up to 4hrs, I'm assuming this is shorter?
I have. Question for @AfrezzaUser , @Bsharp6669 @T.H. Brown and @Im_typeone ? ( welcome, by the way )
All of you have mentioned using Afrezza in conjunction with a basal, and the one mentioned is Lantus. Is there a recommendation for a basal other than Lantus (which is also made by Sanofi ) ?

Yeah I got it last week...
I think it lasts 35 hours
Hi. I think you will find some very helpful experience tips in the blogs over on Tudiabetes, there are several early adopters in the US that are participating in several afrezza discussions. A lot of the comments are about some of the dosing timing, amounts, adjustments, post prandial pickups a bit after the meal when you have had a lot of carbs or slow carbs and need a little bit more later, that sort of thing; and how to use their Technosphere, which is supposed to be frightfully easy. Overall they are very enthusiastic.
Yes go to sleep now
