Default Favorite insulin

Everyone who si diabetic has thoughts on insulin. I had been on NpH and R for a while otget used to it, then I went on Lantus.

While Lantus is good, it is not perfect. I can get teh same long acting results from 70/30 mix or NpH and R dual shot and ot woudl be cheaper.
I found with the Lantus a few small catches. One it can giev you teh munchies. For some reason it can trigger a binge eating. I am nto teh only one who discovered this.
Lantus also monkeys wiht hormones. And has a direct bearing on mentrual cycles.

I dont reccomend it for thsoe who are type 1.5,

It is grat for active people and fo rthose who are busy though.. so it balances itself out!
