Actually, that information is based only on NEW analog insulins.
Juve for 48 years, a certified diabetes manager since age 21--I
went on a regular-inslin-only routine, devised to "mimic" the pump--
but WITHOUT ultralente because they stopped manufacturing it. They aren't required to announce the end of any insulin manufac-
turing (by law) and so, I refuse to use any of the analogs, mostly
because of utter WASTEFULNESS. Hmpf. I just never used my
routine in a pump. PS--my doctor told me I was on the right
track. . .sweet-survivor.
