    Quick probably dumb questio n

    I I have 1mg of a powder, and mix in 1ml of bw, that gives me 1000mcg correct? So with a 1ml slin pin, the 10 mark is 10mcg?

    And on a 1ml slin pin, does each tick mark equal 1i.u.?

    You're getting to be a regular math teacher there bro!


    Yes, in fact, 1,000 divided by ten is a hundred.



    But better to ask than guess... with insulin , the mistake could kill you.

    Your patience is exemplary and your math is perfect, at least up to a thousand. You got a future.

    And who wants to make a living showing his weenie to hundreds of horny, drunk women anyway? I mean, who would want to have his body pawed by lust crazed babe looking for a quicky?

    Umm, could you pm me your work address?

    Thanks, and I really did mean 100mcg, it just came out wrong. And this was for my mgf dosing not slin.

    So is an IU the same thing as a mcg? I'm going to be starting slin sometime in the near future, I have a 10ml bottle of Humalog and to take 10IU would be the tick mark #10 on the 1ml slin pin correct?

    an IU could be anything bro....for example, if you had used 2mL of BW for that same 1mg of mgf...then 10iu on a slin pin would only be 50mcg as opposed to 100mcg

    so in short, no 1iu does not equal 1mcg

    Right I understand that, so on a 10ml bottle of Humalog a proper dose would be 10iu, correct?
