Title: insulin
Post by: Kegdrainer on May 21, 2009, 06:17:50 PM
So what do these fuckers go for on the steroid market?  Pharmacist at wal mart couldn't read the prescription amounts properly and gave me 3 boxes of pens for a 1 month supply.  I use about 10 units a day so one pen lasts me a month.

Insulin is dirt cheap. You should know this as it does not even require a prescription to purchase. You are looking at about 60-80 dollars for 10cc's of it at a pharmacy.

maybe where you live...In the US, insulin is a prescription drug and my co-pay is 20 bucks.  If i didnt have insurance it would be like $220 for a box of 5 pens.  3ml 100 units/ml per pen.   im not gonna sell them though they dont expire for like a year in the fridge.  Ill save money and keep em i got like a year supply for 20 bucks. 

Sorry lovemonkey...i have all my hair and if my hands look yellow its because i've been tearing phone books in half...

No it's not. Humulin-R requires no script. Humalog and others do.

Insulin is the hormone that shuttles amino acids into cells. Insulin is needed during 2 crucial times during the day. Upon waking and immediately after training. This is when cortisol is the highest.

 Type 1.  I have good insulin response but i don't make enough on my own anymore.  I had acute pancreatitis last year from hypertriglyceridemia which brought it on.

No offense but why are you so heavy for being a diabetic. Wouldn't it be in your best interest to lose weight? Do you use you insulin after you work out to get optimal effects from it?

Post by: Kegdrainer on May 21, 2009, 08:49:39 PM
I only use my insulin as instructed by my doctor.  One shot of slow insuling lantus when i get up in the morning and one shot before my largest meal of the day of the fast insulin. 

I could stop taking the insulin and drop weight very quickly, but with that there is a risk of vascular damage to the eyes, hands, feet, and god knows what else....but thats a risk i would rather not take.

This would be due to increased blood sugar correct? Can you not diet on insulin? I understand it would be more difficult.

Post by: Kegdrainer on May 21, 2009, 08:59:00 PM
when sugar goes above 300 your body just pisses it out.  This causes dehydration and rapid weight loss.  I have made a lot of dietary sacrifices...no bread, no sugar added products, no potato, no white rice...very little fruits.  I make oat bread from oat flour, and eat oatmeal as it has lower glycemic index. 

Can still diet and do more cardio, but have to be careful not to drop my sugar too low or you can pass out...i fell off a treadmill one morning my sugar was at like 45.
