I was diagnosed type 1 in March after feeling run down and lots of diabetic signs such as extreme first, urine infections etc. Due to lots of autoimmune problems HAD test was done with was positive and antibodies through the roof.
I am on 6 units morning and 4 units evening of Levimer and 1unit/15g carbs novorapid.
However I work in A&E doing 12.5 hour shifts and it has been pretty busy recently and was finding I hadn't needed to use novarapid at all with meals and am constantly going low 4 and under throughout the day on bolus alone.
When not at work if I don't use novorapid my numbers would end up in the double figures like 15.
My DN Said I could just be really sensitive to exercise and as I'm on my feet all day and barley stop not to use novarapid on work days. But do I not bolus that morning aswell? I know I'm probs still honeymooning but finding it so hard at.work.to.constantly check sugars and constantly munching glucose tabs
Anyone else had similar at work?
Thanks Leanne
