[QUOTE="Jean Mayall, post: 2286209, member: 120042"] I have trouble with Apidra. I have been diabetic since 1973 and started on porcine insulin with no trouble at all, followed by Humulin when analogue insulin came out. When I went on the Daphne course, I was persuaded to try Humalog, which after a few days, brought me out in big painful lumps at the injection sites. I was then put on Apidra and have been on this for about 4 yrs, Recently I am getting severe highs ad lows in my blood sugars (Inhave had a free style Libra for the past 9 months. I find that eating the same meals can sometimes give me a high or I can have a hypo within 1hour after eating. Also my insulin does not begin to lower bs until at least 2 hours and then it drops like a stone. I have mentioned this to my nurses on several occasions, but they seem to think I am miscalculating my doses, which I know I am not. Any advice would be extremely helpful. [/QUOTE]
