Any updates on your FIASP experience?

if you look at my previous post Phil you will see a link for a months trial by Tim 🙂
 
Tim hasn't visited the forum since March.

I have read that Sue, wondered if there was an update from him or whether he is still using FIASP

I'm seeing my GP tomorrow to see if I can swap.

Ironically I've not had massive problems with NovoSluggish in recent months, but I know that at different times it really struggles to keep up for me.

Have you or are your swapping Mike?

Considering the stuff only became available at the end of March and his up date that I linked was for a months usage then you can hardly expect a day by day account can you? 🙄

Middle of May now, just curious
 
Most people only get notifications of anything when not visiting the forum, if someone sends them a PM, in which case they get an email. I'm not partic interested in FIASP at the mo cos I'm still doing fine on Novo. However if anyone is interested eg Amberzak - they could try PMing him and see if he responds.

True, PM is a good idea. I still get frustrated with Novo rapid not being that rapid!

It works inside 10 minutes, I don't need it any faster really. Now - that's you and Mike don't find it does that - but there again he uses a Libre and heaps praise upon it but I find it useless really. We are all different and maybe whatever it is that Tim says is in Fiasp and causes him probs, doesn't do that for everyone? After all - most people don't find BD needles hurt or Lantus stings - but they both hurt me like stink.

Yes, I have a script in at the chemists (Fiasp out of stock at their suppliers), but I have an unopened vial of NovoRapid in the fridge, plus one part used, so it will probably be late-Summer/early-Autumn before I start with it.

Out of stock due to demand I wonder, I will be interested in how you get on with it.

That's how I understood it. I just assumed there were a lot of early adopters. As far as I know it is not on many people's radar yet - but lots of people who hear about it then want to try it.

I am planning to give it a go for 6 months and see how I get on 🙂
