Question

I feel insulin would be the best option if:
1) she is not already overweight or obese; this is because, insulin usually causes further weight gain.
2) she takes food regularly & doesn't fast often; this is because, if she fasts when on insulin, it can lead to dangerous hypoglycemia.
3) she is willing to prick herself; today's insulin pens are painless. Hence, this fear of pricking is baseless.
