Hi all.
I'm 28 and have had T1 for around 3 years, recently I have had a bit of a burn out and stopped taking long acting insulin.
During this time my blood sugars were higher than usual as expected but insulin would always bring it back into range. This was around 4 weeks ago.
I started to use my insulin properly again and was almost always in range. About a week ago I noticed that my blood sugars were high (15.2) I wasn't eating this was my morning test so i took my usual basal and also corrected with 3.5 units of FA.
Since then I have not been lower than 11 and the ratios I usually use don't seem to be working.
Could I have developed some resistance? I have put weight on in my 3years diagnosis but nothing dramatic.
Could anyone advise?
TIA Beth
