UPDATE
I saw my consultant this Thursday just gone, explaining my frustrations with being on Lantus & the fact of the frequently increasing episodes of Aggressiveness with my hypo's & loss of HYpo Awareness over the last few years, which in turn had caused my marriage to end.
After explaining this, I then requested to be changed onto Animal Insulin.
The consultant asked why my blood sugars were higher than normal, from my last HbA1c blood tests. I basically told her that I deliberately did this to stop getting the Hypos, (although I have felt lousy from this).
Although she was a little reluctant to change me to animal insulin, BUT she respected my frustration & concerns & allowed me to change over!!
I am now on Hypurin Neutral & Hypurin Isophane Animal Insulin.
I am over the moon with this & i am now looking forward to trying it.
I would like to express my sincere thanks to you all, for the support given on this forum.
I would also like to express my thanks to my Diabetic Health care Consultant for allowing the change over.
.......and finally to Jenny from the IDDT, for her knowledge, support & total advise regarding this, I can't say thankyou enough!
I will keep you informed of what happens during the switch over & after.
Thanks again!
Steve
