Nice - as always a big thanks Harry!
At least articles are starting to include statements like this “His glucose profile improved immediately and he has not had hypoglycemia,” and this "The patient was badly bruised from years of insulin injections, and consequently was not absorbing it well. She is also discussing this option with several patients who say they’ve grown weary with multiple injections."
Awareness is building and the trend of excellent performance is continuing. It seems reasonable at some point for an official paper from one of the endo "thought leaders" to come out regarding the phenomenal results and quality of life improvements being reported by their patients. THAT will be the article that really makes a signficant and irreversible impact. Still think Dr. Bode is a candidate for that. Prolific writer with a large group of his own patients like Sam displaying non-diabetic results - how can he NOT write about it?

Actually, I hate this article. First, it starts with a giant photo of the Exubera bong. Yes, I know that below there is a small picture of Afrezza, but WTF. Find me one article about a new product that leads with a giant photo of an older discredited product. And you might be surprised to find that some people are not very careful readers and might think the photo is there for a reason. Next, while it is careful to go over all the warnings and contra-indications, lung function tests, even the risk of hypoglycemia, the article takes a pass on explaining the superior fast-in/fast-out properties of Afrezza. It also repeats the ignorant ideas about dosing, suggesting (as most endos apparently believe) that these micro-adjusted doses are necessary, when the are in fact just a crutch used by sub-cutaneous insulin therapy because the action of SC insulin is so different from the way insulin is naturally delivered in the body. The only good thing I can say about the article is to repeat the old adage that all publicity is good publicity, so I do not care what you say about me as long as you spell my name right. BTW will someone please read the Wiki article about insulin and find the part where it explains insulin ratios and how the body uses those ratios. You know, like 2 hydrogen to one oxygen molecule to form H2O. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin |

I agree with you @erzasfund - I actually think it is trying to hide the very positive comments made in it. If you don't read until the very end then you miss the best parts. Hopefully people will be smart enough to realize that and see those.  |
