Diabetic increasing insulin for gains ?

[FirePoiBoy]

I am a type 1 diabetic. This means I need to inject isulin daily (2x48 units) as my body no longer produces it. Does anybody know if I could take a few extra units after a workout to gain some size? I am thinking of trying 1 unit for every 20 pounds of bodyweight. I have a script for humalog and already know the dangers of low blood sugar. I would like any comments anyone might have. Thanks!

what are you using now? humilin N or L? i would ask my doctor what would happen if you added humalog once daily.

seems risky. i dont know about he effects of insulin on a diabetic body. i would ask your specialist about the possible effects.

it seems possible, but im sure you would have to pay MUCH more attention to your carbs and blood sugar.

anyway......ask your doctor

Bro, I am type 1 and have been for 18 years now. MORE insulin will make you fatter. trust me. My doc upped my dose quite a bit last year and *poof* the adipose tissue grew and grew until I told him to kiss my ass and started my OWN treatment. I am fine now. The fatter you are, the MORE insulin you require. I let mine run high a while to lose the extra fat it put on me and readjusted my doses lower and now I am normal again.

Thanks for the help.
I see my Doc in about two weeks and I'll see what he has to say.
