I just stopped by to say "hello"....and that I feel your pain.

I had an experience at the pharmacy a few months ago where they were out of my type of insulin, so they suggested I tried another kind which, according to them, acted "somewhat similar" to the Humulin N I usually take. They were ready to ring it up for me, because you don't need a perscription for insulin. With my luck I would've bottomed out, like I've ocassionally been known to do.

Oy!

I ended up with the blackberry smelling metformin aka gen-metformin. Supposedly has less side effects. WRONG! I had to stop taking it because of the side effects.
