I am 73 years old and have had type 1 diabetes for 32 years and until recently have had reasonable control. However, a few months ago after finding humalog /lantus was not controlling blood sugar well I was changed to a Lyumjev KwikPen/Tresiba regime since when my blood sugars have been highly erratic. A very few times it has caused hypos but mostly it has resulted in very high blood sugar levels. Corrective doses have failed to reduce these levels in the short term and often have little or no effect in reducing levels long term. When administering doses with the KwikPen there is often very little resistance when pushing the button and I am not sure if insulin is actually going in.I match doses to carbs. Has anyone else encountered similar problems or can anyone suggest a solution?
