- When my blood sugars don't behave!
Hi all,
I’m Type 1 diabetic and I’ve had an awful day with blood sugars and ketones... haven’t been feeling well today either so I’m trying to figure out what I should do.
I’m on Tresiba 6 units OD and Novorapid for bolus.
I woke up today with a BG of 12. Unusual for me as I usually wake in the 5/4s. I’ve been feeling sick and generally lethargic. By about 2pm I had ketones of 2.4 - I tried having a little something to eat with an extra 2 units of Novorapid to compensate for the high BG.
My ketones have now come down to 0.3 but my BG is 28 (eek!) which I haven’t reached since my diagnosis last year.
I’m drinking like a fish and have just given a correction... feeling a bit stuck with what to do next.
Any support would be appreciated
