Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Hi Linn, I will e-mail you the supplements I use. I didn’t have a chance today. Home schooling keeps me busy! J He was on Levimir at one point. The last I was using was a half of a unit only at bedtime, but it was causing low blood sugars the following day. I would call his endocrinologist and then we decided to stop all insulin. Before that time, I was weaning him down. I remember changing the one insulin he was taking because I was concerned about some of the findings. That was actually one of the things that made me so determined to get him off of insulin. His endocrinologist is quite amazed and they’ve brought it up to the head of the department (who we also met with) and when there are visiting doctors, they tell them about the case. The head of the department as well as his endocrinologist said to keep up what I am doing. He called it “alternative medicine”. He said there was one case he saw years ago and the girl also never had to go back on insulin. They believe at this point that ael has a working pancreas (and told me they wish they could just take a peek!). J I will e-mail you the list of supplements – if not tomorrow, on Friday. J Tomorrow is our very busy day of the week.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hi Lori, I will appreciate a list of the supplements as well. I have a niece in insulin.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Levimir is a long acting insulin and is commonly used as Lantus is. Was Lantus the other insulin you had concerns about?LinnOn Feb 2, 2011, at 9:29 PM, Lori@... wrote: Hi Linn, I will e-mail you the supplements I use. I didn’t have a chance today.
