I am on beef insulin and have been for a year - I am in western australia I get it on the PBS

you doctor is either not informed or trying to fob you off ( the latter most likely)

the specialist flatly refused to put me on beef so I dumped him and my GP put me on it ......... I am positive I would have been dead by now if I hadnt changed

I also have neuromuscular problems that dramatically worsened when I started on GE insulin and they are slowly improving now I am off it

there symptoms like hot flushes and joint pain and depression went virtually overnight

here is a link to show Aspen pharmacare still have it
