Thank you I'm at chiropodist next month so will ask them x

Hi Had my diabetic check when they checked my feet I have no pulse in left foot checked by 3 nurses and nothing can someone explain I did ask and she said nothing to worry about ! X

Ok thank you just seems a waste to use 3 for novarapid and 1 for Lantus x

Hi iv had the same my distant eyesight has improved but can't read close up now opticians won't test my eyes until my blood sugar is controlled as it's 25-30 then down to 12 x

Hi Just a question can I reuse my insulin needles or are they only meant to be used once Thanks x

Thank you I'm trying to but I really can't eat before I goto work so only ear once a day/night I thought nurse said to take novarapid after food

Only a few days on it one reading is down to 13 then shoots up to 28-30 after iv eaten just trying to juggle it as I work nights and only really eat once a day

Hi all Can taking insulin make you feel really sick? X

I'm trying but I don't have a set time at work for a break could be anywhere between 11 and 4 in morning x

Thank you I rang my nurse she said to take Lantus at 8 in the morning every day novarapid when I have a snack before I go to work then another with my meal and one when I get home in the morning that's what iv done my bloods came down to 14 but then shot up to 23 on my break x

So I work nights and have lunch at around 2am I don't eat during day but have been told to do novarapid before food so do I take at night and not during day and Lantos at 8am My nurse not at work today x

Thank you x

I didn't realise type 2 could be controlled with insulin blood sugar was 19.9 when I woke had insulin my once a day one it's now 23.8 I really don't know what to do as I work nights so I would of thought that it's better to take in evening I have novarapid to take 3 times a day but I don't eat...

Yay I did it don't know why was so nervous. Different doing it on yourself x

I was just told that I need insulin as my blood sugars have not been below 20 for months I have stopped glicazide but still on metformin as well as novarapid 3 times a day and Lantus in morning I'm so confused
