Hi
I missed my lantus dose last night at 10pm, wasn’t sure what to do and my diabetic nurse is on holiday - another nurse told me to take half my dose now and then my normal dose again tonight as usual.
This strikes me as potentially dangerous - surely I think have 1.5x the dose in my system overnight? Has this happened to anyone else? Could I just use regular doses of my mealtime insulin (novorapid) to control my sugars until tonight instead?
thanks
