To the insulin-takers out there ...
My nurse-counselor is recommending I change from my Novolin R -- regular insulin -- to a rapid-acting bolus insulin.
She'd also like me to switch from Novolin N (NPH) to a "once per day" basal.
She did not provide the names of the proposed new insulins. I'm assuming Lantus for the basal.
QUESTION: Would you switch? I'm used to what I've got now, but she says the change would make life a little easier.
Many thanks in advance!
