U-500 is five times the concentration as regular insulin. How many units do you require/meal?

Are you on any long acting insulin like lantus or levemir?

I take 30 units of Humulin R U-500 three times per day.

Doctor switched me to U-100 Novolin.

I am going tomorrow to the clinic to get my A1C test at the lab. Hopefully, my doctor will reinstate my u-500.

Unfortunately, my doctor is not an endocrinologist. I once had an endocrinologist but he changed his practice to a unlimited access for $2,200 per year. Uh..not interested in emptying my wallet.
