Thank you @kitedoc & @Applenerd81 - I’ve just phoned the DSN answering service to ask if I can have a half unit pen for the Tresiba - I’d like to try 17.5u once a day before farting about with split doses. I’m also going to ask (when they call back) if I can have a Levemir one too, as once a month I get slightly insulin resistant for a week, and need an extra unit of basal. And of course Tresiba being so long acting, any changes I make take 4-5 days to take effect! And try as I might to predict exactly when to start increasing the dose, the vagaries of the human reproductive cycle make this next to impossible. I’ve tried top;OMG up with a unit of the Lantus I have left in the fridge but that takes about three days to kick in, so while better, isn’t as precise as I need.
Ain’t T1 fun?
