Took a while, but, heres my first post
Hi everyone, new to this forum so bare with me. I was diagnosed about 6 months ago when i was admitted to hospital, high sugars and off the chart ketones. Was on sliding scale drip and was told after three days to have 16 lantus and 6 nova rapid with each meal. I was ok for the first few weeks and then started having constant hypos. Learned the carb counting regime and have now reduced my insulin to 0 lantus and 2,4, and 6 units for b/fast, lunch and tea. still on this little insulin but still have a daily hypo, usually at mid day. have tried reducing my lunch insulin but any less im 10+ 2 hours after. Have read a little bit about the honeymoon period but was wondering if any other people have had this and how long it lasted. My morning levels with no Lantus are usually 7-8
Can safely say my honeymoon period over now lol, and still nowhere near the 16 units basal, and,now on a pump wow, how things progress when, after diagnosis things seemed very bleak for me and now just part of daily life.
