He uses lantis at night and novo rapid during the day. Does that make a difference? This is helpful info thanks :D Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

He uses novorapid in the day and a purple night time insulin I can't think of the name of :/ Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Thanks so much for the book info hale710 that's really helpful! Because I have no idea what I'm supposed to be cooking for him :/ I made vegetable soup n toast for tea last time he had a fit and I felt terrible because I thought I didn't make the right food for dinner :(( Sent from the...

Thanks very much for the info guys :) I've spoken to him today and he is going to start testing at bed time and before he drives me anywhere. I knows that's not perfect but it's a start! I hoping some of the readings surprise him and therefore encourage him to test more regularly. He has to...

Thanks for the support everyone :D it's the first time I've used this forum, and I am really so happy with the responses I've received. It has reassured me that I'm not alone and that my concerns are valid. Thanks for the information and ideas as well, they are very helpful :)) Sent from the...

Andy I think your last few sentences sum this up pretty well. I can't do it for him and be keeping out of it and not trying to rock the boat, I'm just allowing him to continue his negative patterns. I think I am going to ask him to test around meal times and before he goes to bed. So we both...

That might actually be a good angle to go in at. Testing for my understanding and education around diabetes instead of "checking up on him" so to speak. I tested him after his last fit and he let me. Just so I could see his levels were high enough that he wouldn't drop and fit again. I'm always...

He doesn't have a team :( he refuses to see the specialist because they haven't been much help in the past.. He hates that he is diabetic and so he almost revolts against it.. Which is futile because he will suffer in the end.. He only tests sporadically, telling me he can tell from his body...

Hello my name is Sarah. I have been with my partner for 5 months now. He is a type 1 diabetic and has been since he was a child. Unfortunately, he has suffered 5 fits in his sleep since I have been with him. I think the term for this is nocturnal hypoglycaemia.. I've had to inject him with his...
