recently saw dns to request change of insulin as novo just not working for me ,have been an insulin user for 25 years so know what I am doing ,during chat she looked at results and said see dietitian no said I ive been carb counting for years its not a diet problem so she consulted consultant who also said dietitian !! Told her again re carb counting and was told oh we dont want our type 2 patients carb counting ,then how do they know how much to give and please dont say mixed insulin ,she then had no answer but offered me a biosimilar of novo but when i said its a biosimilar she replied i dont think so but one hour later she rang to tell me its a biosimilar of novo DOH and finally agreed i could have apidra which id researchd and looked like it would suit my needs and its amazing but why oh why wont dns etc accept that we know our control best in most cases then just help and no I didnt need a dietitian .Rant over but it does not instill confidence
