Insulin

Going on insulin. I’ve made the decision. I have a doctor’s appointment on the 29th. I’m researching what type, and I believe Lantus might be what to start out with. Going to ask about the OptiClik pen, but not sure if the insurance will cover it and/or the needles. I may have to start out with the vials and syringes first until we find out about the pen.

I know for some people this might sound extreme, but having tried the drugs and the diet and the exercise, I can’t do it anymore without better results. I can’t eat anything that I enjoy, not even a bit, before my BGLs go out the roof. Frankly, I don’t want to eat mounds of potato chips or candy bars, but honest to god FOOD.

I’m tired of not being in control.
