I am type 2 and recently been put on insulin. Humalog during the day and abasaglar at night. Since starting tho I’ve been having tummy troubles and generally feeling yuk. Has anyone else experienced this while starting on insulin.

Hello @Lucylockets Sorry to hear that, haven't heard of this happening, could it be something else, change of diet, other medication, illness perhaps ?

People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
If you are taking insulin you must have a blood testing meter. This should be issued by your diabetes nurse,

You should have been told about applying for a nhs payment exemption card if you are in England.

What was your hba1c in June?
