David (dns) replied to Dino's Mom's discussion 'Changing from Humalog to Apidra' in the group Apidra Users"Well, it's the newest of the fast actings, but it's not THAT new -- it's been around since 2004 in this country. So it sounds like they just haven't kept current. That's the only real explanation I can offer. :)"
"Thanks so much David. I believe these are the exact reasons my son switched and is going to try Apidra. Funny thing is, many of my mother of type 1 friends have never even heard of Apidra. Why do you think this is?"
"I think , that's what you are looking for ...Apidra users experiences ?? I tried Apidra for a while and went back to NovoRapid ( Novolog , USA ???)"
David (dns) replied to Dino's Mom's discussion 'Changing from Humalog to Apidra' in the group Apidra Users"This isn't precisely the feedback you are looking for, I expect, but here is my $0.02 for whatever you can take from it.
I recently switched to Apidra from Novolog. I tried Humalog a while ago and discovered that it didn't work for me. I…"
"I did join. That's where this post is, no? :)"
"Dino's Mom ...there is an Apidra Group , probably worthwhile joining ??"

"Agree! And I definitely plan to sign because people with any type of disability should not be treated this way!"
"Also, is everyone traveling with their "Notification Card" for Travelers with Disabilities and Medical Conditions?? My son also told me he whips out this card and begins the screening procedure with ease.…"
"I'm not saying that ALL have a bad attitude to begin with....I should have clarified this better as SOME have a bad attitude. I've seen it numerous times first hand."
"Isn't there something already in place with TSA? http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/passengers-diabetes

He is very special -Not only because he is MY son but rarely a day goes by when someone mentions what a great young man I have raised. I am proud to be Dino's Mom.

Welcome home Dino's Mom!!
There's a group here called "Type 3 Diabetes" (for people with loved ones who have diabetes).

Take a peek at some the groups when you get a chance. Just go to the top of your page, and click on "Groups". Once in,
click on "all groups". You can either peruse the wide array of available groups....or simply type a specific interest in the
space provided.
Take in some of the blogs/discussions as well.
The resource boxes at the top of the home "Home" page, and
"About us" at the very bottom of your page and every page (the footer), offer you more information still.

Hope you find the support and information you came looking for.
