How easy is it to get pork insulin?

[Bea24]

Hi

Just want to know if anyone has had better control on animal insulin after switching from synthetic.?

I was diagnosed 24 years ago after Endometriosis destroyed my pancreas and put on novorapid straight away. I had very good control until I reached 56 then my levels have been up and down more times than a yo-yo. Diet and exercise regime has not changed and I did the menopause at 36 after hysterectomy.

I have allergies to certain medicines among other things and wonder I'm not tolerating the Fiasp and Tresiba anymore?

Looks like you can get it, have a read here:

Animal Insulin

Animal insulin was the first type of insulin to be administered to humans to control diabetes. Animal insulin is derived from cows and pigs.
