Pardon us for not wanting to kill you (or as it turns out, your doggy)

My dog was on Vetsulin until the supplies ran out than he was on Humulin. We could never get his dosages right on Humulin. He'd be okay for a few weeks than he'd go hyperglycimic, dosage would be changed rinse and repeat. He died 03 January 2012 at home after being at the vets where he'd been treated for 2 days for another hyperglycimic episode.

Sorry to hear that.

I don't remember anyone asking the pharmacist about why the color was diff. on their pills when I worked in the pharmacy. Though I do remember we had a sub pharmacist one night. Right then some twitchy guy wanted to boy insulin needles. Or maybe they were regular needles. Anyway, it was a case where I could sell them w/o a prescription but the guy was so twitchy so I got the pharmacist to talk to him. The pharmacist sent him away without needles and told me I did good in getting him since he thinks the guy was probably on drugs.

these people would be dead if they'd lived 150+ years ago. I'm sure thousands (tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands? Millions?) of people since humans came to be have killed themselves through their own willful ignorance, inability to accept that they're wrong and downright stupidity. Then modern society rolled around and most of the more dangerous things, like medicine and heavy machinery, were taken out of their hands and put into those of people who know better. They're alive by virtue of not having to do things for themselves.

So true! I agree, without modern marvels we'd have a lot less people
