    156!!!! HAZZAH!! (After 1 hit of Levemir)

    That's a great improvement! Sounds like you may not be producing much insulin....

    I hope you can get to an endo soon and away from that quack GP who only gives you samples with BG over 300....
    Hey Ralf...seriously!. Stupid pancreas lol. I may change GP's Got the endo referral but to Dr that didn't take my insurance, so I wait again bit at least I have some insulin in the meantime.

    What motivates me is Levemir!
    My old insurance was $100 for 6 boxes of 5 pens each.
    my new insurance is $1,125.77 for the same
    6 boxes :s

    For me diet has the biggest effect on my glucose #s,
    carbs in particular, so I eat as few of them as possible.
    I don't eat high protein because a lot of that will raise my #s too.
    To get my calories up closer to where they should be I
    eat fat. :)

    Keeping to a strict Very Low Carb - High Fat diet,
    I've been able to completely get off daily Victoza injections,
    and reduced my Levemir injections from 100 units a day
    to 30 units and still dropping. I still take Metformin twice a day.

    Thank you for the information Ken. I am still waiting for referral to endo and will hopefully get what I need. I can't do HI fat because I have chronic pancreatitis. But i do try and stay low carb...most of the time
