In the last 4 days I’ve developed severe insulin resistance suddenly out of the blue and I’m wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this in their entire life.
My blood sugar is consistently 8-16mmol/L mostly between 12-16mmol/L. I’ve been running around injecting NovoRapid and literally my body doesn’t respond and my blood sugar sometimes actually rises when I inject. What could cause such severe insulin resistance? My insulin sensitivity tends to be good using a 1:10 ratio and now even a 1:2.5 ratio doesn’t work - this happened over night
I’m not really that active, I cycle everywhere usually but I don’t really count that activity. I sleep 7-9 hours a day, can’t think of any other reason why this may happen - I don’t feel ill but could asymptomatic corona even affect your sugars anyways?
I’ve tried injecting NovoRapid into muscles and then going for a walk, usually bolus + a short walk gives me hypos but my blood sugar seems to not shift.
I’ve ordered a Covid test incase I have it but I’m asymptomatic but do you guys have any advice?
I have checked my ketones once and it was 0.1 so definitely not in DKA, I don’t know if the hospital would be able to help but they’re probably just going to give insulin aswell so no difference to my therapy.
It would be appreciated if anyone with a similar experience gives advice. Thank you
