I hear that Apidra and Novolog is much less "stingy" than Humalog in terms of rapid acting insulin. As for Lantus and the multiple daily injections, have you considered an insulin pump? I love my Animas One Touch Ping - it's very durable and even waterproof. You could lock the buttons to keep her from accidentally giving herself insulin. Insulin pumps are great for kids with needle fears because it's one infusion set change every 3-4 days versus multiple injections a day. I think the infusion sets hurt less too (the auto injectors are super fast) and once the little flexible plastic canula is in, you don't even notice it. Just a suggestion.
