[QUOTE="handicapable, post: 1834001, member: 479878"] This is the closest anybody has got to the truth to date although if it was a mistake on behalf of the hospital, I should probably have received a phone call from them telling me they were calling urgently about a mix up with another patients prescription. Also the consultant never took my weight which asks the question, how did he calculate my body's total daily insulin needs? Plus if that prescription [I]was [/I]in fact for another patient they owe that patient an apology too because 24 units Lantus to 18 units NovoRapid is almost double the manufacturers guidelines of 33% of your total daily intake (it is actually 57%!) but hey what do they know? They only make the stuff. Haven't got around to that phone call yet, can't see it being a lot of fun.. It is on my to do list though. [/QUOTE]
