For me, the increase was gradual and I did not experience a jump.
Are you sure the reason for the increase is the end of your honeymoon?
Have you changed your insulin to a new batch?
Are you ill?
Is your pen working correctly?
Some people find their insulin requirements change as the weather changes. Has the hot weather made an impact?
Are you stressed?
Might be worthwhile discounting a few of the other reasons why your BG may have risen.
Thanks. No, I am not 100% sure it's the end of my honeymoon but I can't think what else it can be?
i) it's been going on for 3-4 weeks now and yes I've tried new vials of both Tresiba and NovoRapid
ii) don't think I am ill
iii) pens seem to be fine
iv) yes I always seem to be less insulin sensitive when it is hot (which I think is opposite from most people, who become more insulin sensitive?) but that can't explain it as it hasn't been that hot and I work inside all day
v) yes I am stressed and have anxiety but always have done and I am not more stressed than usual, although I was a couple of weeks ago so maybe that triggered it
Also, for what it's worth, I'm a healthy weight and BMI and exercise 3-5 x per week (often running 10km+) and my exercise regime has not changed.
I'm feeling so depressed today; now even the 14 units of Tresiba a day isn't cutting it and last night I had a pizza (to be fair it was a large one and I was super hungry) but I ended up needing
19 units of NovoRapid (split over 4-5 doses including in the middle of the night) and I still cruised higher than I would have liked at 9-10mmol over night. This exact same meal would historically have required no more than 10 units. Similarly, today I had a salad from the same place I always get one and it has always required 2.5 units and I stay nice and steady. I knew I'd been struggling so upped it to 3.5 units today but even now I am cruising at 9mmol when usually I'd be getting my late afternoon low by now of c.4 mmol and having a drink to boost my levels up a little bit.
I'll try upping my Tresiba YET AGAIN and see if that helps. I'm debating trying going back to Lantus (never had any issues with it but DSN recommended changing to Tresiba anyway) although that's probably just me being impatient and trying to find a way out of this situation.
