and 1 day, but who's counting.
6 months, that's how long it has been since diagnosis. We have learned a lot.
Yesterday I went and picked up her new insulin from the Endo. We are going to try Apidra with syringes. Vivian says that the syringe hurts less than the pen does. The goal here is to get the insulin to match the food spike. The Novolog was missing the spike and her numbers were ellivated. The apidra is supposed to act faster and therefor hit the food spike faster.
Because of her age we are dosing post meal. We can't ever guage just how much she is going to eat before hand. We tried dosing her before her meals and then giving her the rest after the meal, but that meant giving her 2 shots at each meal. That sucked.
I went on amazon and ordered a case for the new insulin. I'm hoping it shows up before we leave for vacation on Monday. If it doesn't I'll think of something else. I got a free carry case from the Endo office when I was there, and that will work.
