[QUOTE="Fallenstar, post: 223380, member: 36659"] Hi Caleb I was on Apidra and had to change on to Novorapid because it could work on me in literally minutes , I have no insulin resistance at all and very high muscle to body fat ration and do a lot of exercise daily. I have hit a vein once...believe me that is scary :shock Took me from 13.6 on waking to 0.8 in the time it took me to get downstairs, that was one VERY intense weird Hypo I shall never forget among the many I have had. I have gone into the muscle a few times so know this used to take me Hypo from double figures in minutes also but not the same and as fast as hitting the vein. But even going into fat the insulin could still work that fast that I could go Hypo at the start of a meal just after injecting it, from decent figures. So for some of us these new rapid acting Bolus insulins do work as a normal pancreas might but that dose would be adjusted naturally with no margin for mistakes ,we can't always replicate this as hard as we try. I find Novorapid a lot more of a intermediate acting insulin for my sensitivity and so a lot better fast acting insulin for my needs [/QUOTE]
