Eyes will be from having higher levels...
Are you on metformin?
I think u500 should be discussed. Consultants don't seem to recognise how much 80 units is to inject. Really, how would they like it?
I know how comparisons are made to others but cherish your body for being you.... Don't worry about others.
Have you had your eye screening done recently?
Don't feel useless. There are also others on more insulin. I know of one young lady that is on higher rates and thats just from a few people that I know personally...
Glad you got an appt with consultant soon...make a note of u500.. It maybe that nurses etc are not aware of it as they may well just put everybody on u100....
Catch up later...
Thank you
Yes this will be my first consultant appointment. So hopefully should come away feeling better
Yes the pain of injecting 36 units can be excruciating x
I'm trying my best to reduce insulin resistance by taking cinnamon tablets bitter melon tablets and chromium picolimate capsules as these have shown to help control levels
I am also taking metformin. Two twice a day xx
