How risky is insulin???

[j.r.w.]

Thanx for the info. The one question I still have and I know it is probably different for everyone (and no one may have a real answer): How much slin and for how long is risking becoming dependent? I would have to feel extremely comfortable with the answer to this question before I ever took that step.

As I said in my post...

Also, long term insulin use can lead one to become insulin dependant

But everybody reacts differently. You may be able to use high doses for a long period of time and not become anywhere close to dependant. I belive using insulin more than once p/day increases the chances of becoming dependant also.
