Hello Mr. Insulin, I've been expecting you

Saw the diabetes RN today.  She reviewed my numbers and thought I should have been started on insulin last Friday when I saw the crackhead doctor who knew nothing about me and didn't bother to find out.  So, she went and talked to one of the MDs I have seen more frequently and voila!  I am starting 2 injections a day of regular and NPH.  I go back Friday to review my numbers with these changes and tweak my dosages.  Not unexpected, and hopefully this will give me tighter control.

    I am in your club.  My poor tummy has little bruises all over it.  =(  I am guessing once i send this weeks numbers in on friday I may be up to 4 shots a day.  ugh.  I hope it works well for you.

    Welcome to our not fun club.  I am on NPH just at night but it looks like now it's going to be dinner insulin as well.  Anyone have to do this?  How does it work?

    Welcome to our happy little club... I just started Humulin at bed time and morning. I was using both last pregnancy so I suspect I will soon be doing both again. My fasting numbers have come done, but I still have some high numbers with dinner. Ugh. GL!

    Good to know the bruising is normal.  I've been on Levemir at night and Novolog at meal times for a week.  I have my follow up appointment this afternoon.  I was going to ask them about the bruising.  Has anyone tried injecting into their leg?  I haven't yet, only my belly.
