Is it possible to get i200 humalog pens? It’s double strength insulin so you can push more without running out as quickly. Hope everything gets better for you! I can’t even imagine what you’re going through, I’m a weenie who can’t even handle a migraine so I don’t know what I’d do with your level of pain. I admire you.
