Hi, me again, I really need help and I don't seem to be getting it, last night my blood sugar was 28.3mmol, I was very worried about it, so I phoned NHS Direct, they just told me to sip water and take 5 units of Novorapid, then to check again at 2am. At 2am my reading was 27.9mmol, so it had come down a little bit, but nothing significant. I take 2x 500mg Metformin twice a day, 50 units of Glargine and 3x20 units of Novorapid, my endocrinologist has said that I have a significant insulin resistance.
If that is the case should I be on different insulin, or not any insulin at all? I just don't get it! All I know is that I feel ill, tired, thirsty,blurred vision and generally ****, I take 4 injections a day and I'm not getting any better. My last HBa1C was 10.6% and I'm a type 2, I don't carb count, but I don't eat a lot of carbs anyway. I've tried seeing what foods affect me, but my doctor has cut my testing down to 6 tests a week, so I can't even do that now.
What I really want to know is how do I get my levels down and keep them that way? I can't go on feeling like this :?: Sorry to rant on, I just needed to let off some steam.
