Investors, Please be careful how you respond to diabetics on any social sites in regards to Afrezza inquiry/usage. Sharing afrezza success is wonderful but their doctors have the final saying so PLEASE DO NOT BE PUSHY and scare them away.
Also please becareful with pictures. I saw afrezza next to a "weapon" with a comment "they both save lives". It was very strange, disturbing, and actually a little embarrassing. This is only my opinion so don't "shoot" me but please give some thought before posting.
Professionalism shows Afrezza in a positive light and we need that to help any users or potential users get their question answered on social media, and if nothing else, to tone down some of those hard-core bashers.
Thanks for your consideration.

What is stopping shorts from posing as longs and using this kind of behavior to make MNKD investors look like crap? I think the vast majority of MNKD investors know to leave the patients alone.

My 2 cents , The pic you're referring to was from our very own Spiro who as we know is using Afrezza & has multiple personalities ,) aside from that , I am on Twitter to keep me sane re: owning this stock , I don't post though. If you search back in my threads here which I rarely start I believe I was the first one to say " unless you are a Diabetic stay OFF these forums " There are some tweets that I see who I know are investors & they make me cringe ./ it comes across as Desperate ! Spiro & the other members who are actually on Afrezza are not included in this rant . But Eddie moy ( sp) is just awful ! To the point that I'd be turned off about trying this drug . Get out of your own way ( which indirectly affects those of us who are being respectful ) . I don't care if I get attacked for saying this but one thing I despise is when people push something on me that I don't even know I want . It makes me quickly come to the conclusion that I can live without it regardless . Diabetics ( T1's in particular ) have been fed so much BS through the years about the " next best thing " that will help them , that a lot have become skeptical & rightly so . Let the Diabetic Afrezza users continue to do what they are doing , I'm impressed with all of them/you who are Afrezza advocates & Diabetics . The rest , just read only , don't participate in any discussion . K , I'm done Lynn PS , I just checked & I created that thread on February 2nd of this year . This was before I was ever on Twitter but my opinion hasn't changed .

How dare that Spiro to say that Afrezza can save lives. Just because Afrezza can control high blood sugar, reduce severe hypoglycemia, help lower lout of control liver and kidney enzymes, help with weight loss, reduce basal insulin needs etc. How could he have the audacity to compare Afrezza to the millions upon millions of lives that guns have saved. Wow
John here, that Spiro can really stick his flat feet in his mouth at times.
Spiro here too, Afrezza can not only save your life like a gun could, but it can also make your quality of living a lot better.

Eddie (and other 'new' trolls) is/ are at it with a vengeance it seems. They are an 'investor' destruction team. They seem to be all over the place making socially inappropriate comments and using the worst kind of language. Some investors are doing real harm. Sadly those are beyond reason and will not stop their smearing of Afrezza.

Honestly sometimes I think we give them too much credit like we often do with AF et al... As Al Mann said take care of the patients and the rest will take care of itself. Anyone can have an opinion...
Like with almost any topic these days there are moderate rational people who comprise the majority and then there are the extremists, in the minority, who somehow manage to hijack the conversation, I believe because we let them. But in the end the truth will win out...

With time I do think things will play out as you say but short term the aggressive nature of certain 'pro' Mannkind needlessly become part of the story.
