- Insulin. (Takes over my life)
Had to change my insulin doses for the seventh time this month. Still pretty high blood sugars. I said to my diabetes specialist, "I'm losing hope." I saw my nurse practitioner too today. Apparently he does not want to test me for type 1.5 diabetes cause it might cost money to send it away.
Just so you know, I don't have money to send anything away to get tested. So I was thinking about stopping insulin, with my nurse practitioner and diabetes specialists permission. Don't know how much that is going to help me. But it would be better than having to get two injections twice daily. This got reduced from four times a day to twice a day. But I'll get two injections at each visit. Might need to add another visit again.
