An update:
Something that I forgot to mention in the initial post is that a sister of mine is and my mother were both type 1's. So diabetes does run in the family.
To answer some of the comments/questions in other replies:
1) Normally, I do this twice daily, once in the morning and again before bedtime. If I happen to be in my office before lunch, I will take it before I eat. After todays appointment, at the request of the doctor, I will be taking a reading before my evening meal for a comparison reading to the bedtime meeting. More on this coming up.
2) There times that I know it's working as I can feel things changing, as in going down.
3) As far as daily activities, as stated in another blog entry, the past couple of weeks I've been doing some maintenance work which means more activity. Because of this, I don't take the 3 units of humalog in the morning. And a few times, it's been a good thing. Normally, I may spend a good part of my day in the office. There are days that I feel like a yo-yo where I'm in an out of the office all day.
With spring and summer coming, that means the amusement parks will be opening soon and I'll more to do on the weekend. And since the parks seem to like to spread the Coaster out in the park, that means more walking to get to them.
At todays appointment, it has been confirmed that I am a Type 1. The oral med's that I take aren't effective anymore. That will save me a few bucks on my co-pay on my Rx plan which ranged from $5 to $35 depending on the Rx.
Who knows, maybe the original diagnosis was wrong. But as the doctor said this morning, "The honeymoon period is over."
