I've been on masses of different brands in my time as a T1. New Zealand (where I live) has a relatively limited range, but still has quite a fewBut I agree with [USER=480869]@HSSS[/USER] that it would be helpful to know if you were still producing insulin, and how much?  As a T1 I would be dead in a few days if I didn't inject, even if I fasted, but know that things can be very different for some  T2s on insulin.  Some can reduce their insulin needs by reducing their carbs.... (Not saying this is necessarily the case for you).And I too am concerned that you may not be eating enough to cover your nutritional needs....</blockquote>
