[QUOTE="janabelle, post: 117308, member: 7788"] I've noted that they type-1 patients on this forum who've been considered 'insulin resistant' are on analogue insulins. Could this have more to do with defective 'insulin' rather than true insulin resistnace. I don't doubt that some type-1s do suffer some form of insulin resistance, but that must not be confused with analogue insulins not working for some people. insulin needs in pregnancy usually double by the time of the birth. I have experienced this 3 times, but fortunately on synthetic 'human' insulin, and not on analogues. I also noticed that my insulin needs increased smoothly, never a suggestion that I was becoming insulin resistant. I only ever considered that I might be becoming insulin resistant while on lantus. I could have quite easily stayed on Lantus, been put on Metformin, and still be the walking dead :evil: Jux [/QUOTE]
