[QUOTE="mountainman, post: 800962, member: 167280"] The pump is not used by Sam Finta in the USA. One injecton /day is manageable for most, all the rest is inhalation. AND, more importantly, do we really want the long acting injectable in our systems causing these lows and highs with on-going damage to nerves and eyes any more than we have to ?? I would think that it is safer to use as little basal dose as needed considering the side effects and damage that happens when using them. I read that there are diabetics driving to the USA from Canada to go get Afrezza now. They don't want the damage done to their bodies any longer. They go to a clinic , get the Rx and spirometry test and come back the same day. Only ones they say who can't use Afrezza are those with compromised lungs, such as COPD, asthma or lung disease - also those who smoke currently are not eligible for Afrezza, but they are welcome to take a spirometry test after 6 months of stopping smoking to see if they can use it.
