The Spiro look is getting popular. Ashiwi gives it a try.

Sp[iro started Afrezza on 2/26. Here is an exactly the same meal that has been charted 3 times. He can only tolerate this low low crab breakfast, because watching MNKD's decreasing share price has a way of keeping him from thinking about food.
Breakfast, 22 carb Sausage Biscuit, coffee, no sugar
Date Fasting BG 1hr BG 2hr BG 3hr BG 2/28 131 157 119 96 Started painting house after meal
3/8 105 163 145 127 Watched MNKD share price drop after meal
5/16 91 130 88 85
The numbers are only as accurate as my up to 20% inaccurate BG meter indicates, but the trend is definitely looking good.

After meeting with Sam for over 2 hours and personally observing his enthusiasm and excitement about Afrezza, I believe he is genuinely motivated to share his story. Why shouldn't he be? Heck, I am and I'm only a puny early Type 2. Sam did share the fact with Ashiiwi and Spiro, that he has money saved from his personal business that is allowing him to pursue his Afrezza advocacy, Ashiwi mentioned earlier that we sat there for 2 hours and watched his blood glucose react to his lunch. He accurately predicted what his BG would be before it registered on his Dexcom, This allows him to take a correction dose of Afrezza if needed. Unlike most other Type 1 diabetics, Afrezza has given Sam 100% total control over his diabetes. He mentioned that Type 1's need to be aware of the possible need for a correction dose 1 or 2 hours after they eat, depending on meal size. For early Type 2's like Spiro, using Afrezza is such a no brainer that it's frightening. Spiro has a simple motivation. He wants to prevent his diabetes from worsening and hopefully reducing the possibility of complications caused from excess blood glucose. One thing is certain, Afrezza works great. Sam knows it, Spiro knows it and hundreds of other diabetics know it. But it is unfortunate that only 1 or 2% of the diabetics in the U.S. even know that Afrezza exists. It's time for Sanofi to step up to the plate and start hitting home runs and get the word out.

Oh yeah, so Ashiwi, you think it's easy to swing those heavy golf clubs over a 100 times once a week. Spiro says that Ashiwi will be joining him very soon as a Type 2 if he keeps downing big lunches like he did today.
Spiro here, he will not start going to a gym.

Spiro wants to know, how Afrezzauser ate twice as much as he did after they both took 4 units of Afrezza and Spiro is the guy with the big belly? Spiro had to eat faster than usual, because he thought Afrezzauser had an eye on his bagel. Ashiwi was impressed with Afrezzauser's Dexcom device.

KC, Spiro told me to tell you that, Hakan's sees an Endo in Paris, so he could very well be drinking wine in France somewhere.

I heard Spiro tell someone that Hakan has been camping out at his Endo's office since Monday. They have been trying to work him in.

Spiro is quietly watching all of this hysteria take place. He is still waiting for Baba to explain how the shorts will be able to cover 100 million shares before MNKD and Sanofi start DTC and stage 2 of their marketing plan.
Spiro here, glad we didn't get better Rx numbers today, because the stock price would have plunged then

Doctors will be hesitant to prescribe Afrezza to new patients until they see actual lab reports from the early users. During the next 4 weeks over 600 of the early Afrezza users should start getting followup lab tests and then an additional 200 or so every additional week. Spiro's will be on May 27. Brian Sharp just reported a 5.7, down from 10.1. How can Doctor's ignore results like that?
Spiro here, depressed in Miami. I wonder if depression can raise blood sugars?

Boom, I don't think Spiro would do to well on a glucose tolerance test. A Glucose tolerance test of 75 grams of glucose would equate to over 300 grams of carbs. That's about 2 cups of Aunt jemima maple syrup. I don't think my 4 units of Afrezza could handle that. Prior to starting Afrezza, at 3 hours following that meal, Spiro's BG would have been a lot higher than 150. www.tudiabetes.org/forum/t/how-much-glucose-in-a-gram-of-carbohydrate/9581Spiro here, Afrezza is not curing Spiro's diabetes, but it sure appears to be helping him control it better

Spiro decided to go on an eating binge at breakfast today to help Mrs. Spiro celebrate Mother's day. He found out rather quickly that he is still diabetic.
Details: Spiro consumed 80-90 carb breakfast, which included, 3 pancakes, too much maple syrup and sausage patties.
Fasting BG 100 1 hour BG 167 ouch 2 hour BG ? oops, Spiro forgot to test it 3 hour BG 94 Spiro is feeling much better now
Spiro here, Happy Mother's Day to All

There has never been 1200 Afrezza reps, the number is closer to 800. Still pathetic results so far.
