UUgghh!! I'm getting that too lately. I just want to throw my arms in the air and scream today. And it's not helping me to get his a1c down. I tossed the insulin vials out and am crossing my fingers that fresh ones will do the trick, or at least be an improvement.

Hey, Sarah...how'd the fresh insulin go today? Did it help?

How frustrating!!! Feel free to say "Aw, CRAP!" here any time!

Hope that today will be a better day... if not try opening new vials of insulin!

That's exactly what I decided to do but only with her Novolog. If things don't improve, I'm tossing the NPH and Lantus tomorrow and opening new ones! I'm only doing Novolog today because that's the one we travel with and the most likely to have gone bad. We've only had these open a couple of weeks.

Good luck, Sarah! Here's to hoping we both see some improvement today... :)

Ahhhh, just saw the word NPH, hmmm, not my insulin of choice, but.......................

I was on NPH and regular for 35 years, and did okay, I guess, but.................

I think a better choice would be Lantus and Novolog only, as NPH has soooo many peaks.

Yeah, it never seems to be working when I think it should be working...I've had questions about that. Maybe I'll ask when we go in on Friday.

That's great, Megan! I'm so glad they're working well for you. I'm sure the docs had a reason for putting her on NPH but I'm going to ask on Friday...
