Last week, I had an excellent endo appointment! My A1C was 6.9 and my lab results were great, Dr. Mazza was pleased. We started talking about insulin and I told her how United Health Care changed the tier of NovoLog which changed my prescription from $10 to $60. She asked me if I would be willing to switch insulin brands, and we both agreed that I was going to try out Humalog for the first time. She assured me that there was not any difference between the two brands and that their effectiveness varies from person to person. I’ve been trying to do some research on the differences and found a few interesting facts:
With all of this knowledge I took to the butter dish and put the Humalog to work. Day 1 so far the only difference I can report is the smell of the medication is different. Stay tuned for more updates on the “NovoLog vs. Humalog Challenge”.

tumblrbot asked: WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT ON YOUR PLANET?
Hmmmm good one. I want to visit Canada. Mountains, rivers, people saying “Eh?” what more could a person ask for on vacation?!
mattchilcote asked: So your blog post says you are engaged and planning a wedding in November of 2011. How are the wedding preparations going? :-)
Ha its funny you say that, I registered to TheKnot.com where you can manage seating charts and guest lists and they keep sending me emails saying “13 months to go!”. I think I need to clue everyone in that the date has come and gone!
