    Insulin without a prescription

    I have read that you can get insulin without a prescription from places like CVS,Walgreens, Costco, Canadianpharmacy etc. Is this true? I am type 2 diabetic and take glyburide 2x daily but it is becoming less effective. My doctor is up in the air about prescribing insulin just yet. I have been training for 35+ years 5days a week. My diet is clean and I watch my carbs but my blood sugar levels are staying high throughout the day and my fasting blood sugar is high also. I don't think the doctor understands the bodybuilding aspect/nutrition that insulin can bring. I am in the beginning stages of researching how to do it safely. Thinking about Humolog. Can I get the insulin without a script in the dosages I would need for training? Say 3-5 iu's post workout with a 50gram protien shake/ 40 grams carb (i have been using glycoject) amino's and creatine? Then protien and complex carb meal 1 hr later? Close monitor of my sugar levels throughout the day.

    Thank you,
    Keith R

    If you're already diabetic, supplementing with fast acting carbs (even when combined with exogenous slin) after a workout is the worst thing you can do for yourself.
    It is only going to raise your insulin resistance further.
    Keeping your feet should take precedence over a few extra pounds of muscle.

    My doc just switched me to Victoza from metformin. Maybe talk to him about alternative meds.
