Things seem to be coming together lately so I don't have much to complain about. Dad is off and running on his type 2 meds, I have successfully finished my first round of interviews for the job I'm applying for, and all is well for the most part on the diabetes front.
My dad started his Metformin and things are coming together pretty nicely. He is taking his daily dosage and eating better and exercising regularly. He has even enjoyed having a couple extra pounds fall off due to his new lifestyle.
Friday I had my first (phone) interview with the company I applied with. I thought it went very well and I enjoyed speaking with them. I am told the second round of the interview process will take place sometime this week. If all goes well the last step will be to make a visit to New York City for an interview in person. I believe that will take place sometime in March so I am anxious and looking forward to getting things rolling.
And finally, I recently returned to experimenting again with my Lantus dose. A while back I wrote an article about how I was going to be reducing my total amount. I was originally on 18 units and then I switched to 15. Well, after a variety of poor results I am now back up to 16 units of Lantus for the day, but with one major difference. For the first time in my life I am splitting up the dose. Yesterday I tried 15 units, I split it up but I had a few highs still. So today I am trying 8 units in the morning (10 a.m.) and 8 at night (10 p.m.). Overall I think this will be a better solution instead of taking one big dose and having all the Lantus at one time. I will let you know how it works out.
