Hi
So my DSN showed me how to inject and everything else to do with the pen. But i still don't know what exactly it does for T2 who produce insulin *my Endo told me he didnt want me on insulin for that reason* but unfortunately things got bad and i ended up having to go down that route.
I started from 12 units and now 35 units. I still dont get the fact i needed to start with 12 units and move up by 3 units every 3 days till my levels are stable. Meaning in could actaully be needing to go up by a lot.
It hasn't helped me bring my levels down at all. I normally inject and wait 15 minutes to 30 minutes before i eat. And i am still the same level. Of course the insulin isn't out of date its from the pharmacy straight to my fridge. I am planning to stop using it as soon as i speak to the endo because whats the point in using medication if it isnt working.
I wish it could help bring my levels down but unfortunately it hasn't. As far as diet. Lifestyle. I am active and i eat a meat based diet majority. Only carbs i have are from my actimel and sauses i have stopped the rice and pasta entirely.
