I was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I have been finding a lot of helpful tips through this site so I wanted to say thank you!!!! Now it's my turn. I am looking for ways to cut costs with everything I do in life, even now more since I have additional costs having Diabetes. I found 'ehealthsource' and it has over 400 value-branded products that are FDA approved, including diabetes testing supplies. I recently purchased one of their bundles and found I saved almost 40%! Just google, 'ehealthsource' and check it out!

Hi, because of cost I still take Huminlin 70/30 3 times a day. I was on twice a day but poor control. Readings are better taking 20-30 units 3 times daily.
I hear a lot about pumps. What are pros and cons. I dont mind doing injections, but I rather not use two different types of insulin.
Merry Christmas

I used to take Actos and had terrible swelling in the legs and leg cramps.I am now on Metformin and Levemir and am getting better readings than with 3 oral meds and no insulin.

Does anybody use Actos? If so, are you experiencing any side effects and what are they?
