[QUOTE="elaine77, post: 658695, member: 59930"] Hi Smidge, The diabetic clinic recommended mixed insulin but said I could do basal/bolus if I wanted but - ur right - I chose the option with the least number of injections per day and went with the mixed. I set my alarm for 3am and it had dropped from 5.4 to 5.1 so not too bad but this morning I woke with the worst headache I have ever had, it hurt so much I was nearly in tears. Checked my morning levels and they were at 11.9mmol so I'm guessing the good old liver kicked in with a glucose dump between 3am and 7.30am when I got up... No idea why the headache was so bad though as my morning levels have been higher than that for the last few months and I've been ok... Not sure I could cope with more injections per day either as my stomach is very sore and tender and iv got bruises too from some of the injections... I knew this would happen, my body doesn't like needles :-( [/QUOTE]
