Spiro's 90 Day Report

[spiro]

Today is the 90th day that Spiro has been been using Afrezza. During this period Spiro has order over 800 BG test strips from Amazon. OK, maybe he got a little compulsive here, but better safe than sorry. I have attached a copy of his 90 day spreadsheet for those interested. Quite a few people, including Spiro's PCP have asked Spiro if he feels better now that his blood sugar is so much lower. The truth of the matter is that Spiro never really felt bad before starting Afrezza, they don't call diabetes the "silent killer" for nothing. However, Spiro has notice an abundance of extra energy during the last month or so. Heck, Spiro has so much energy that he even accompanied Mrs. Spiro shopping one day last week. That can be quite an experience and very taxing on one's physical conditioning. When Mrs. Spiro goes shopping, she not only shops, but I mean really shops. She can go to some 9 or 10 stores. Some of the stores are so big that Spiro needs an in-store GPS to get around. Mrs. Spiro claims that she saves Spiro thousands of dollars by being such a great shopper. Why is it that women have to have a different purse for every outfit? Spiro has probably been whacked by dozens of her purses over the years, that's why he likes her soft leather purses the best. 

Ok, back to business. Spiro has lost 10 pounds according to his doctor's pathologically lying scale. The nurse refuses to tell Spiro, when the last time that the scale was calibrated. I don't know, maybe that's why she keeps trying to take blood out of Spiro's head for lab work. Spiro is going for his 90 day A1c test tomorrow morning and then leaving for his Mediterranean cruise the same night. He will not get his A1c report until returning home on June 10th.  Ouch

Who doesn't love seeing women in their native habitat!
Except maybe their mates.


Congrats on the weight loss and good numbers.

Any guesses how much you attribute the lower BG numbers to Afrezza vs some weight loss and dietary changes you may have made?

Great to hear Spiro! And watch out for those purses on the trip. Most women pack too much stuff in them when they travel

Spiro
Great numbers. Can you please add an extra column to indicate Mallomars consumption? we want to see its impact on FBG.

One day I hope to see prophylactic use of low dose Afrezza.

Are you talking 2 units for pre-diabetics?

[babaoriley]

Spiro, while your energy level may well be up, your sense of humor has exploded, LOL as I read your post!

Do your numbers vary any with spikes or drops in the share price?

We're all going to be very interested in that A1c number; don't you think you could ask your PCP to post it here as soon as she gets it!

Tip on international travel - don't strap the Afrezza cartridges around your waist.

Nice Excel spread sheet Spiro.
Very impressive with your technology skills (which kid did it for you?)
Do you realize that you just violated HIPPA privacy act?
Don't worry, nobody here would turn you in. Maybe Fuerstein would.

Maybe not that long. The biggest (or one of the bigger) issue for diabetics is bg testing. Imagine not having to start basal, constant bg testing for T2's and starting with Afrezza? My prediction is 3-4 years.

Spiro,

Great numbers and your A1C is something to look forward to.

Have a great time on your trip and thanks always for your Afrezza expertise.

More than likely prediabetics would need to take the amount of insulin needed to cover the meal in order to preserve pancreatic function and prevent progression to diabetes.

Great numbers Spiro, have a Great Vacation. Thanks for sharing !!

Adam would publish it this way:

NEWS FLASH! Notorious HIPPA criminal busted on Pro Boards and flees for Greece.

Ummm, can we expect the feds to come after us for aiding and abetting?

That damn Spiro keeps spilling his guts on John's medical condition. Spiro's son and daughter help Spiro reveal John's personal data. it's a good thing Spiro is leaving town tonight, it will give John a much needed break.
