[QUOTE="ElkBond, post: 1243711, member: 270837"] [USER=316931]@Alex_B[/USER], Insulin is not the type of medication that should be thought as something that can be taken when it suits, its a fundamental hormone that the body requires 24/7. Think about it as running a car with the oil low/empty and not topping it up, the car will run for a bit without a problem but the longer you run it with no oil the more damage gets done, chewing itself up, to the point where parts need replacing to continue, or eventually the scrapyard.
