andrea replied to andrea's discussion 'question about insulin types'"thanks everybody, always so helpful! i'm going to ask for a sample of novolog at next weeks appointment. hope everybody else is doing well!"
bsc replied to andrea's discussion 'question about insulin types'"We often test at fixed times after meals, and while this may be a good strategy for deciding whether to correct, it doesn't help us answer questions about how well our insulin has matched our meals. And as you and others have noted, low carb,…"
Holger Schmeken replied to andrea's discussion 'question about insulin types'"Like Desiree I experience that the NovoLog has a rapid onset combined with a longer tail. But you have to find that out for yourself. The fastest analog Apidra is for some people like water and for most it is a blessing. The reason is not know to…"
Gerri replied to andrea's discussion 'question about insulin types'"I use Apidra & Regular on low carb, using split bolus doses (MDI). I have gastroparesis & need slower acting insulin that stays around, though I can see how Regular would be helpful for low carb without delayed digestion. You sure don't…"

- Wow, MSU. I actually sent in my application for Montclair this past weekend. Going back for my master's...hopefully I'll get accepted. I've been to the campus twice and it's so much bigger than I thought. You don't work during the school year or do you live on campus?

- I really like Glenn Ridge, it is a great area. I really like Fitz, but didn't know it was there for the longest time. What did you do there?
I like most places in Montclair, ended up at Egan's yesterday when I couldn't get into Fitz. Have you ever been to the piano bar in Bloomfield? Always an interest group of people whenever I go there. I also like Senoritas, right by the train station in Bloomfield.

- A friend of mine lives there and we stopped by at his house for a bit. Though to be fair, most of NJ's towns I've seen look great to me - they look so quiet and peaceful compared to the non-stop commotion in New York.
