i used to use Lyumjev for a while. but for myself, i could never keep my BG regulated properly. so i went back to Humalog Kwikpen. i've been also using Toujeo. it was doing good for a while. but my Endo added Ozempic every week. finally got my A1C down to 7. before that it was up to 12. i'm very happy with the results. so i'm heading in the right direction.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience, Danny, and congratulations on the big improvement in your A1c!
Maybe I should start the Lyumjev before I run out of the Humalog, so I can have the Humalog as a backup…..
I will go ahead and request a Lyumjev prescription from my doctor, so I can ”try” it. My A1c is currently at 7.5, but I would like to get it a little lower, And I think I could do that if the timing of my Humalog mealtime insulin (around 12 units) were not so “off”. Pretty sure I start it too late, and it works for too long — and beyond the point where it’s really needed. I take around 30 units of Lantus (Glargine) morning and night, too. How do you use the Toujeo?

@danny5 ,
That is a huge improvement. I’m working hard to reduce mine too. My BG is all over the place without a pump and cgm.
I have a friend who is type II, that did very well on Ozempic. She said it was like a miracle. Please post your thoughts on it. I can’t take it since I’m type I, though I know some Type I’s who take Wegovy.
