I sure hope you get those numbers down, PDQ, Chuck! -- Nick. Support severely wounded and disabled Veterans and their families! I've known US vets who served as far back as the Spanish American War. They are all my heroes! Thank a Veteran and Support Our Troops. You are not forgotten. Thanks ! ! ~Semper Fi~

In the longer window, you may have to study the principles and do a lot of your own work or find a new doc. For now, take care of your self. I do have a very high regard for you.

I just got my Lantus and my Novolog upped. BG is in the 200's most of the time and sometimes 300's. It's damned frustrating! And now my needle clipper is totally broken so I have ordered another one. Different kind. Can't find them in the stores anywhere.
