500 units of insulin. No low sugar. November 9, 2017

      November 8, 2017 I took 500 units of insulin within 24 hours. It is second day in the row.
No low sugar. I can feel it is getting low, so I try to take action, to eat something like apple, coffee... . I do have regular meal about three times daily. Usually two good meal at second half when my man is home and he help me with meal. In the morning it is usually very light meal, and I try to get some sleep after I take meal and shot. I eat soup, I like soup, and my man do it by himself. It is in Mason Jars. Good, healthy, and no preservatives. I can take coffee, and I do not pay too much attention how many cups I took. I just sip it.
     This is pretty my routine.
     Right now I am interesting, why I can take so high dose of insulin, and I even do not feel it? I take it like water. I can take it, 100 units, and do not have meal, then take another 100 units, and still no low sugar. Why is this so? Is this something wrong with me? Or it is just normal healing prosess? I do not know. But I try to do my best, and still going as it is.
       I do know very well, I have somehow to control my blood sugar numbers. Some day numbers are good, but then they are out of control, and I have to try another way around. It is not first time when I took insulin in high dose, and I was like water for me. Dose of insulin injections just went up and up. Then is stopped to rise, and started to drop.  At this point one time after another I lost my health plan, and it was how insulin delivery was stopped. So, next time when after insulin delivery was re-started , the highest dose of insulin went up, almost doubled. It was one time after another. Now it is 500 units in one day. I do not know for how long I will need this dose. When this dose of insulin would start to drop? Would dose of insulin dropping at all? Would it go up and up? I do not know. I just simple still keep going.
      Right now sugar is 159 mg/dl. It is 2;04 am.
I took my meal at 9;26 pm.
At the same time I took 100 units of insulin.
At 22;47 sugar was 233 mg/dl, and I took another 100 units of insulin. No meal. Just black coffee. 
167 mg/dl at 12;22 pm. No meal. no insulin. And only now at 2;04 sugar dropped down to 159 mg/dl.
Three hours after 100 units of insulin, and sugar did not drop dramatically down.
       The question is, why our MD so afraid to Rx insulin? They afraid that diabetic will have low blood sugar and there is nothing would safe the life. This is why we all time have very limited dose of insulin. And we are, diabetics type 2 to whom dose of insulin demanded higher then 200 units a day, have nothing, no one unit. Med.Pro. present it is not safe for us, diabetics.
      The actual problem, it is not safe for ND. Without insulin MD such as Anne Peters would ver safe behind of protocols which present diabetes type 2 as insulin independent type of diabetes. So, she is and she-like all the time safe when they Rx life style modifications. The mortality of diabetics rise depending on amount of medical care we do have. In NYC where no limit with ND, diabetes is number 4 cause of death, why?
      When diabetic admitted in ER with high numbers, what is protocol how to do the job? It is IV with insulin slow dropping in diabetic's veins. So simple. They count dose of insulin according to the pound one do have. Also the dose of insulin counted by time how many drops dropped into vein every second or minute. I am not sure. And what is next? Of cause it is low sugar. Insulin which injected in blood right away does not do the job right away. It takes time. When insulin dropped into vein there is no sugar start to drop but not right away, with time. This time different for every one if us. Some one survive, someone does not.
       What after insulin therapy in ICU? Diabetic returned home. MD such as Anne Peters de-prescibe insulin and re-prescribe Invokana, or Avandia, or any other medicine as add-on to Metformin. Soo numbers go up. To control those numbers more insulin must be injected. But any dose of insulin is already the problem for diabetics type 2. We are Insulin Independent type of diabetics who need dose of insulin higher then 200 units daily. To compare, Insulin Dependent diabetics type 1 whose life depend on insulin, need less then 100 units, and many inject not more then 10 units daily. Just for reference, non diabetics team injected 10 units of insulin in every one arm, and only after that they went to wards to inject insulin in diabetic's children. No low sugar for team.
      What I try to say, if insulin is so important in our lives, why we are, diabetics type 2, who need higher dose of insulin then diabetics type 1, have none? We can survive incubation period till diabetes still underdeveloped. We can survive with high numbers we do have. We need right dose of insulin, right type of it, and right regime of insulin therapy. We have nothing. Just Invokana to pee-out sugar from blood. They present, when sugar in blood is normal, we will not pee it out. Invokana does not lead to low sugar.
Ho-ho-ho. Sorry, it is still too early for Santa.
