Hi all before christmas i was managing well on 4-5 units of Nova rapid with meals, in total i take 36 units of lantus a day.
All of a sudden my need for insulin has increased, i am now on 15 units with each meal and 2 hours after meal i am still 16-18. i dont know whats causing it or what to do, seems a really high figure and am getting worried.
Dont want to end up with DKA again only started 15 units out of sheer desperation, at the time was taking 8 and got so fed up with high figures, decided was bringing my levels down and didnt care if resulted in hypo (which it didn't in end) have been taking 15 units for last week now
Any advice would be really appreciated as way im feeling next number ill pick out of thin air will be 30
