I was diganosed with type 1 diabetes on thanksgiving day 1977. Slipped into a coma. Sugar was 750 that day. No complication as a result of my diabetes. Take insulin 4 times a day. Humalog, and Humalog 75/25 mixture. the 75/25 mixture three times a day, the humalog 1 time a day. I get my medicine covered through my health insurance from my workplace. My only problem is i always seem a little bit thirsty. Other than that, no complaints. Hoipe things work out for you.
