@mgtmccartney When did recommendation change as it’s always been the case do not visit GP if suffering flu like symptoms, in face GO’s would refuse to see you and advise stay home, I’ve had real flu twice and it floors you so doubt they’d make it to a GP never mind hospital?
@DiabeticDadUK Yes @DiabeticDadUK I’ve e been monitoring my SD number of years now and glad to say it’s on the low side, together with TIR they’re a valuable sign of how I’m managing my diabetes
@coracle1 @simonrheller @JDRFResearch As a non scientist but who’s lived with t1 for 57 years I was moved by the enthusiasm of the presenters and feel we’re close to seeing improved and more responsive insulins soon, the challenge has given the necessary boost to novel insulin reality.
@rustyjellybaby Interesting comment you made as I moved to Fiasp from novorapid but found it too powerful, never seemed to lose its effect and worked way beyond its timeline. Went back to novorapid but may review mix
Did the Grand Challenge session at #DUKPC2023 whet your appetite to work on new insulins? Please join us for this symposium!
Insulin dev not your thing? NP, spread the word to your colleagues in chemistry, molecular engineers… anyone with the skills to make better insulins!
