After holding the honored position of Lead Global Moderator for only 5 minutes, there was a successful coup by Baba, which has removed Spiro from his honored position. Spiro never knew that this board was a Banana Republic where this sort of an atrocity could have happened. This is particularly disturbing because of Baba's lack of experience in Global Moderation. Spiro is convinced that Baba was assisted by North Korean computer hackers to accomplish this coup.
Spiro here, demoted after only 5 minutes.

Baba,
The bargaining was tough, but management has caved. Spiro has been awarded his own private group, where Spiro is the Lead Global Moderator. This is a private group where the three Spiro's can make decisions. Isn't Liane the best!!!!!!

gomnkd,
The 12 unit cartridge will increase the number of patients that one line can treat. My guess would be that one of the new lines will be dedicated to 12 unit cartridge production. The revenue per patient could will go down when the 12 unit becomes available, but then the number of patients possible to treat will go up ? right ?

Baba, After getting that huge upfront fee, you have still not delivered on your promise to get Spiro that Lead Global Moderator position. I know it's about board politics, but Spiro thought you had connections with Liane and the other big guy.

Spiro usually prints out most of the articles, both pro and con about MNKD. Occasionally, he go back through his stack and reads some of the arguments both for and against Afrezza. Nothing has really changed, the hit pieces are mostly nonsense and are usually not worth the time it takes to read them.
But one of the rare comments that can really piss Spiro off, are the allegations that investors who believe in Afrezza are Cult members.
Spiro doesn't follow cults, Spiro follows Legends, thank you Al Mann.

XO,
Spicy Jamaican Patty, Spiro has no idea what's inside of them and really, really doesn't want to know, because he likes them sometimes.

Ok, I wasn't going to post this, but I was just encouraged by SBS to share it with the board. Hopefully enough of you are infomaniacs, so that I don't get cursed too much.
I took some more readings at lunch today. I ate a 37 carb frozen meal for reference purposes.
Starting BG 95 1 hour 114 Before Afrezza this could have been 185 or higher 2 hour 115 3 hour 127 I guess this reminded Spiro that he is still a diabetic and shouldn't be eating 37 carb lunches. This number also pissed Spiro off, he thought he was cured. 3 1/2 hour 109 5 hour 82
Oh well, where the heck did that 82 come from? Probably a bad test strip. Maybe the 127 was a bad strip also. Could Spiro have been Psychosomatically set back after being called "Spiro the Chronic" by Liane. Or, could these numbers just be typical variations caused by questionable eating habits.
Have a great weekend everybody,
Spiro here

Spiro likes this new format and the recent adjustment. Liane is the best message board administrator in the business. Baba, i am not trying to brown nose my boss for that Lead Global Moderator Position.

silent bob,
When you get to 69, it seems lack everything is slackening off. Baba don't go there. I also have a family history of diabetes. i think the bigger issue is, would type 2 diabetics like myself with a similar A1c of 7.1 or higher react the same as I have to Afrezza. If so, at what level should doctors intervene to halt the progress of the disease? So what will the future be? Toxic oral meds or Afrezza?

Lynn, thank you for the kind words. But Geez, you are almost embarrassing me. i don't deserve fans. I only have a little puny chronic disease, right Liane. It's not like Spiro is extra chronic or something worse. Spiro is really hoping that this early intervention with Afrezza will keep his puny chronic disease from becoming extra chronic. I have actually been told that intervention could be more effective even earlier than my stage. It's going to be very interesting when we start to see the A1c results between May and july, from all the early Afrezza users. Now, about this moderator stuff. I may be the worst moderator in the history of moderation. I think Liane and BD only gave me this title to help keep me out of trouble. They also put a clause in my contract, that I had to keep the number of my posts at 50% less than Baba's. This has not been hard to do. I also have a big bonus clause, if I don't make any political references during the year. I may have already blown that one. My Moderator contract is coming up for renewal soon. If I don't get re-signed, I will become a Free Agent Moderator. If this occurs, I am hoping that Baba will be my attorney during free agency. I am sure he will get me the worst possible contract. i got the first hint that Liane wasn't going to renew my contract when she called me an EXUBERANT PUMPER a few weeks ago. And now, she just called me Spiro The Chronic. What would people will think when they see the title, Spiro, Chronic Global Moderator? You know, it's really going to be hard to find a good non-paying moderator job somewhere else, at a site where everybody respects each other.

Holdem, don't worry, Spiro forgives Liane, she was only using some big doctor word on him. it could have been worse, she could have called Spiro pathological or something else worse than that.

ok, i'm trying to get caught up, did Liane just call Spiro chronic disease. geez Liane Spiro just caught Diabetes on 2/18/2015 after his 7.1 A1c. I have watched that Mallomar video 5 times now, such a craving it is.
mrmookie123 - Spiro feels your pain.
sbs, unfortunately, Spiro didn't do a lot of testing prior to starting Afrezza. I had started a house painting project the week before I started Afrezza. I did a 0,1,2,3,hr BG test a couple of times but the morning exercise from painting probably compromised my results. I only paint in the morning while it is still sort of cool.
SBS, I am not comfortable with this data, but here it is. On all of these days, I worked around 3 hours non-stop. I started each meal with an unusually low BG.
These meals were exactly the same, a deliberately high 78 carb meal.
Pre Afrezza - Lunch
BG 96 1 hr 162 2 hr 130 3 hr 144
With Afrezza - Lunch
BG 86 1 hr 136 2 hr 104 3 hr 102
Next day lunch - Lunch, No clue how many carbs. Typical Spiro lunch, Salami, Bologna, Provolone Cheese with Miracle Whip on White Mountain Bread. No cheetos now, Diet Coke
BG 96 1hr 102 2hr 119 3hr 92
These are the numbers that I showed my doctor on the afternoon of day 4, when it was decided to continue the same dose. I am not comfortable with the accuracy of the BG readings, particularly with the higher numbers, my guess from plus 10 to minus 10 range. But at least it gives me something to look at, but of course, at the expense of my poor fingers.
Spiro here, 100 fasting glucose and 101 three hours after breakfast today. How can Liane call me, Spiro the Chronic?

alethea, Thanks, I will check them out. I have been using the so called painless ACCU-CHEK Multiclix system. it's not too bad, I pick a different finger everyday to torture. My pinky finger objects to this practice and is usually left out of the rotation.
