[QUOTE="Chrissy2k, post: 149625, member: 27160"] Hi Grumpy, thanks for the reply. To be honest, I don't really know much about taking insulin, I was on novomix for 2 months, but that didn't work, so I have now been put onto novorapid and lantus, but they don't seem to be working either. I see an endocrinologist at the local hospital and he has said that I have significant insulin resistance, which is all very well, but it doesn't help me. Every time I phone my DSN she puts my insulin up, I'm now on 60 units of lantus once a day and 26 units of novorapid 3 times a day, my BG before lunch was 25.5mmol. I really don't know where I'm going wrong, and I know it's not my diet although I'm going to keep a food diary for a few days and see if I can spot anything abnormal. I don't carb count, but I eat a healthy balanced diet with plenty of fruit and veg. I'm trying cutting out my fruit to see if it's that, but I'm hoping it isn't, I love my fruit. Anyway, thanks for the reply, Chrissy [/QUOTE]
