Hello,
I have suffered lots with night time hypos so been told I need to change my basal insulin (Lantus- split dose). My consultant (who has been utterly useless so far) has advised me to go onto Tresiba. My nurse (who has been more useful but still has no idea what she is talking about most of the time) has suggested Levemir.
If I has to chose I’d say I trust my nurse more than the consultant- but really don’t know much about either insulins.
Is one better that the other at reducing hypos?
Edit: To the mums/ladies trying to conceive- is one better than the other for pregnancy?
