Hi everyone!
I know that insulin resistance does exist. I've used NovoRapid injections for about 12 years, but over the last couple of weeks I've been getting ridiculous highs, mainly after I've eaten (I'm using my normal carb/insulin ratio so this shouldn't be happening). My normal dose of insulin doesn't seem to be bringing me down at all! I don't want to increase my background insulin (Tresiba) as I do drop slightly overnight, but I can predict this and plan accordingly.
Do you think it's likely that I'm developing some resistance to the insulin? And if so can you suggest any alternatives?
Thanks!
Shannon
