[QUOTE="wilkinsonpj, post: 248908, member: 41269"] Hi Susan, I'm type 2 and been on insulin for around a year now. Started off on Humulin M3 twice a day which is a mix of slow acting and fast acting insulin. It worked fine at first but then my figures crept up again. I'm now on Humulin I and Humalog - i take Humulin I first thing (24 units) and last thing (34 units) - and take Humalog (10 + 10 + 26) when i eat and this seems to be working some days and then some days it seems not. I still wake up 1st thing and my BG is usually over 10 (i'm chuffed when its under 10!), everyone is different and whereas some drugs will work great for some they may work as good or not at all for others. If i'm honest i don't look after my condition as well as i should and feel guilty some times when i read on here how dedicated most people are. Your symptoms seem similar to mine and i'm curious do you honestly looks after your condition? If you do i apologise, I'm just curious cos you sound like me... Cheers, Pete. [/QUOTE]
