[QUOTE="CheeseSeaker, post: 2642181, member: 531814"] [FONT=Calibri]Fiasp is essentially NovoRapid with added nicotinamide/B3 Where Novorapid (was using this for 20+ years - the time flies) takes at least an hour to kick in (in normal situations) Fiasp can do it in 15-20 mins, so much easier to avoid the post-prandial (after eating) highs. Lyumjev is Humalog with vasal dilator (Treprostinil) added to speed up absorbtion I found both of these caused me issues (worked great for a while - say 3 weeks) then I got absorption problems with Fiasp, long story but needed an ultrafast (fiasp or lyumjev) for looping. Ended up mixing Novorapid and Fiasp - this worked much better for a good 4 months - then I got insulin resistance again. Switched to Lyumjev - same resistance - so tried Fiasp and Lyumjev mix - much better (oddly), and now on 80% Lyumjev, 20% Fiasp, heading slowly for 100% Lyumjev Means my Insulin loop works properly and slow introduction reduces the issues with Lyumjev (treprostinil takes some of us a while for the body to accept) Mixing insulin is not recommended by any manufacturer - so personal risk, but it worked well for me. Fiasp may work well for you (hope it does) and an ultrafast works much better once you learn to control it - I'd recommend you try it, but keep some Novorapid in case it causes resistance and you need a backout plan (either back to Novorapid or mixing)[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
