Hi any opinions / experiences would be valued please. I currently take levemir in one dose at around 8pm and would find it a lot more convenient to take it at 8am, when I am generally at home (rather than carrying it around all day in the heat for example)
I can imagine that with this dawn effect of higher levels in the morning it might not be a good idea to be relying on the last drops of levemir in the morning when the BGL is higher, but then again it seems to be effective for my evening meal at the moment which is usually around an hour before I inject.
So if i was to do it, should I maybe take a half dose one evening and then start with the full dose the next morning, or would I be better to take it an hour earlier every day for 12 days until I get to my morning time? Will consult with the Dr of course but he is still on hols for a few more weeks.
thanks in anticipation
