[QUOTE="DiabeticVeteran, post: 123224, member: 24184"] UPDATE, Hi All, I thought I would post an update to you all as I have not shown my face for a while. I have now been on the Hypurin Animal insulins now, for a month today. After speaking with Jenny from the IDDT before the switch over, she mentioned that i would more than likely experience some big improvements...... ......well, after the month, here is what people have noticed first 1. I have lost weight but have not lost much definition 2. My head of hair had got thicker. 3. I have colour in my face. I was always very pasty when on Lantus & Novorapid. 4. People have noticed that I seem " Calmer"! here is what I have noticed in myself............ 1. Given the amount of stress I am under, due the domestic circumstances, I am going through, I generally feel better in myself. 2. I do not ache like i used to. 3. I dont feel half as tired as I used to be. 4. My skin complexion looks much better. In terms of Blood sugar control, when I have a " Good" stressless day, they are very constant, but unfortunately I am having more highly stressed days at present which is making it hard to control my BG levels. My consultant is aware of this & he is not concerned at the moment. In terms of Hypo's, when my BG goes lows, I am starting to get some trembling, etc. It is a start but will take time. The only people that have not seen me for 7 weeks now, is my wife, my 3 sons & her immediate family............By me not seeing my sons, this is killing me & although, I am trying to be very amicable with my wife, she wont let me see them, due to what she has written in her court proceedings.. However, I only wished I changed a long time ago to the animal insulin. It is also very good news to hear that others using animal insulin have noticed a change in themselves. Thanks for reading & take care. Steve [/QUOTE]
