Charles' Story

Individual results may vary.

I USED TO THINK:

I thought taking insulin all the time would keep me from doing the things I enjoy, like fishing. So even though my doctor said insulin would help get my blood sugar under control, I wasn't about to volunteer for it.

NOW I THINK:

After I started insulin, I had better control within weeks. And the needle's tiny, so I hardly feel it at all. I'm a real believer now.

MY ADVICE:

As part of your treatment plan, insulin may help get your blood sugar under control. So you can reduce your risk of developing some serious diabetes complications later on. That's a fact.
