Marie B commented on Nodcom's blog post 'Insulin Overlord'"Nodcom, sorry to hear about the moodiness. May I suggest taking a walk? I know the weather might not be the greatest, but I always feel better and clear my head with a 20 to 30 min walk, and it definitely helps in the bg dept."
"Well over the weekend i have been taking more and more Insulin to keep me below the 150 mark.. i have notice my mood deteriorating. is this normal? i dont like being a crab, and the only change is lower blood sugars."
TheTurtleMoves commented on Nodcom's blog post 'Insulin Overlord'"Stress can raise your blood sugar so if you're stressing/pushing yourself when you're active, that can be raising it. Even when the activity should bring it down!"
"Thank you TheTurtleMoves, im going to give the Carb thing a try.Stemwinder, I have been exercising, and for the Metformin, WAY too many sideffects for me to continue using it (on for 8 months regularly). one odd thing i have noticed from keeping a…"
Stemwinder commented on Nodcom's blog post 'Insulin Overlord'"I have been where your at. I was 225 lbs and injecting 120 units of Levemir and almost as much Novolog. I managed to tame my insulin resistant monster thru exercise mostly and diet. I know I said them, those nasty two words that all T2's are…"

"Thank you Brian i will give that a try and go from there. as you thought i was injecting myself in one place with the 50 / 50 Levemir. (rotating sites each night) but i will spread out the injections over different areas. and i will start giving…"
Marie B commented on Nodcom's blog post 'Insulin Overlord'"they do make a U500 insulin, which is 5 times as concentrated. however, I'm not sure whether they make a long acting lantus/levemir type, or just the fast acting type like apidra. we have a U500 group, feel free to join it if you would like to…"
Brian (bsc) commented on Nodcom's blog post 'Insulin Overlord'"Well, we all have it bad. But we can always make some improvements, and I'm sure you can improve things. Your A1c of 9.6 corresponds to an average blood sugar of 230 mg/dl. And once your blood sugar runs high like that you will become more…"
