Hi Annnika!
I loooked at your posts until now so I learned that you prefer english - and I try to answer you in English although your question was asked n pretty good German!
Humalog Mix 50 is a pre-mixed Insulin, 50% Humalog and 50% "slow insulin" (sort of a "Humalog-NPH").
so you have aways the same mixture of quick and slow insulins in your pen - I hope you use pens?
And I think it is very difficult to get good results with a premixed insulin - you cao do it, but than you have to follow strict rules: how much you eat, when you eat, how much sports.... and even then, it does not always work - as you have seen.
now you use two different insulins, the Lantus and the Humalog.
In our country, this would mean that you do sort of an individualised intensive therapy - taking different Units of Humalog with every meal, and once or twice a day a dose of the Lantus. And eating, doing sports .... at every time of the day.
But I know that in other countries, like US, people do not get easily training for this sort of therapy - so I would like to know what you do with the Lantus ad the Humalog? How do you use them?
In any case, I am sure you are abslutely right when you think that life is easier with 2 differnet insulins than with a premixed one!
Haooy new year,
