Just a quick one about something I just saw on the news which may be of interest.
Apparently, there is a new regime in which instead of taking 2 (or 4) injections a day, we can take one a week.
Now I don't know the in's and out's of this yet, the news report was very vague, in fact it wasn't really a news report as just reading the title of the front cover of another newspaper, but I sort of like the idea.
What I don't get, is how we would control things on one injection a week, I know on the regime that I am on, my 4 consist of fast acting control when I eat, and slow release control when I sleep, so it would be interesting to find out more about this new regime, see who they tested it on and the results ect.
If it is possible, and available, then I am totally for it! I reckon (and this is just a guess) you'd have to take more blood sugars until you managed to get used to the new regime, but I think between a choice of more blood sugars and more injections I'd definitely take the blood sugars any day!
I've been trying to research it on the internet, but haven't found much. I'll do some more research and when I know more about it i'll post it up, but I think in theory the idea is very good.
I love how we are advancing all the time, things are so different now from what they were when I was first diagnosed! It's all steps in the right direction :)
Keep Smiling :)

Doesn't look quite as good as your first impression but it's a start.
