Hello,
I have been on Insulin for past 46 years, was on Mixtard then on Human Actrapid and Human Insulatard. For past 1 year i have become sensitive to Human Actrapid. When I started with it it was 15 units of Actrapid and 15 units of Insulatard. Now I am just taking half of the dosage. If the sugar levels are high and I increase even 1 unit of Actrapid I become hypoglycemic. My doctor says that I have become sensitive to Insulin. Has anybody experienced this, why is the insulin requirement coming down? Can anybody suggest a solution, actually insulin is required but I have to take small dose thrice a day. Are there any suggestions?
