The other thing is ratios, as mentioned by @DunePlodder and @noblehead , it is seemingly rare that a person has the same ratio throughout the day .

Or even on different days (eg. Weekends and Mondays).

You might even need to consider splitting the dose unevenly - no matter whether Lantus or Levemir... your body rhythms will be different from day to night and will have different insulin requirements accordingly.

Good luck with it.

Cool. My uncle was a coach driver in London, dont know what company he works/worked for. He stays in Orpington.

I have only ever been to Sterling once to have a 'holiday' in the jail.

maybe see if you can be put on Tresiba, Ive been on both lantus and levemir and I must admit Tresiba is by far the most stable

I have been a diabetic since I was 3years old, I am 28 now.

I have always been a terrible fiabetic, never checking bgl and only taking Lantus, rarely took Novorapid.

From 4th May, I started checking bgl, have been to Diabetic Clinic and have seen the Dietitian approx 3 times.

I take different levels of Novorapid (carb counting) and always take Lantus at 7.30pm (28 units)

However, between 3pm & 4pm, my bgl starts to rise, I was 6.9 before breakfast, 6.1 before lunch and sitting at 10.6 now and not due to have my Novorapid until hubby is home from work @ 6.30pm.

Should I consider splitting my Lantus dose and inject twice daily or should I ask to be changed to Levemir? I have heard about Tresiba but it is currently unavailable for me as I live in Scotland.

VERY close to cracking up and need all the help I can get.

I used to take my lantus 22 units once a day in the evening
However I found that it started to run out after twenty hours or so
So I split the dose into 12 in the evening and 10 in the morning- one extra injection but it has kept my readings much more stable and somehow also helped dampen down my dawn phenomenon too

Thats what I would ideally like but sadly it is not available in Scotland :-(

Really? I didn't know that, good job I'm on the pump!

 

[mammamia2006]

Yeah, it's available in England, Wales and Europe but not Scotland.

 

[Heathenlass]

Just so you don't feel totally left out , there are areas in England and Wales where Tresiba isn't being prescribed either because of cost .It's a postcode lottery
