Actually yes, I should've realised from my past experience what's suits one may not suit another, I will adjust my toujeo to 12 for 2/3 days to see how it goes, the Dr initially said 6 but over the past 3 weeks ive increased it to 10, today first day at 10, so hopefully the next few days I'll...

Hi, I'll start on same dose of lantus and change it as I need but the Dr told me to take 6 tuojeo, I've increased to 10 with not much change but just read on other site to use 20% more toujeo compared to lantus so I'll try it tomorrow, thanks for all replies, take care

Hi, thanks for replying, I'm not sure what that is, it fasting bloods test?

Hi, I wondered how to work it your so if I was on 12 u of lantus 6+6, is need about 18 of tourneo, u seem to know what your talking about so does something like this sound OK ( after I confirm first with diabetic clinic)

Hi, I've recently been changed to tourneo? from lantus as my bloods were low in the morning, now after 3 weeks my bloods are generally high teen to 23/24, I'm using a lot of apidra at each meal (6_9) whereas with lantus ( twice daily, 6+6) my bloods were generally below 10 and only used 2, max4...

Hi, thank you for responding to me, I'm on 12 lantus daily and 2 apidra before each meal, it had been working OK bit it is the bowel problems that have ruined my life but only on the last few days I've cit out most hi fibre and eating white bread and for the past week since, things Haven 80%...

Thanks so much for the very positive replies, I feel a lot better about things, and as in AA, I need to take a day at a time rather than wasting it worrying about the future, thanks and you all have a great day

Has anyone have any thing good to say or good experience with diabetes? Hopefully I don't sound bad or anything but i am drivinyself mad assuming that I'm going to loose a foot or something, or I'll go blind so just if anyone has any good experience I'd love to know, I've been diagnosed T1 in...

That's great Jasmin thanks, maybe it is too much, I inject lantus only once in 24hr so maybe 12 units and 1/3units of apidra ( but only my dinner is exceptionally heavy or a lot) so I'll try what you suggested, u also sound very positive, thank u very much :-)

Thanks everyone for replying but I've noticed my toes and foot gave now swelled also, even after been told that taking b complex (2 daily) would help, I only started 1 week though, yes I'll definitely try alpha lipoic acid also, but unfortunately I've only got new calipers which were measured...
