Good morning to all!Very recently they diagnosed me with diabetes, apparently type 1 for what I am with injectable insulin (they are still doing me studies).Start the treatment with insulin glargine bowl, but when changing specialist, he told me that the treatment is badly inconated (according to he does not start with that long -lasting insulin, and he also argues that many units indicated to me) for which they are going toChange to insulin NPH.What worries me is that they send me to inject myself with subcutaneous needles, I see them very large and painful for insulin.In case they send me vial insulin, all can be applied with 32g?I refuse to use the subcutaneas, they look painful, hopefully they send me ball :(

There are small syringes, for children but the ball is always better.

I would change doctor again, that of the NPH today sounds prehistoric.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?

  

I think like @Sherpa41, the NPH is very old and forces a very strict meal regime for what I have read of people who used it.
The normal thing is that the treatment with pill + basal insulin (Lantus, Levemir, Toujeo, Tresiba, etc.) and Rapida (Humalog, Novorapid, etc.) is started in function of your glyd and detected values, until normal values ​​are obtained.
On the way they make antibody analytics to determine if you are type 1, lada, type 2. The Moody costs more than are encouraged to genetic tests.
The Glargiana is the one we use the vast majority.
