Has anyone tried symlin right after vs right before eating? My though is you would avoid the lows by digesting a few carbs and slow digestion to avoid the spikes along with appetite suppression?

I have done it once and it made me a little sick. But make sure you dont double up prior to meal, it will really cause problems to your system as in Throwing Up like you never done before.

But may I add to this reply: May I suggest that you talk to your doctor and request using the symlin pen. It is easier to use and you wont be bending the needle points trying to break through the rubber gasgit. I've been using the pen for 3 months and boy what a difference in the shots.
