Hi everyone
I am sorry about this lengthy post but beside myself
My gp speakng to cons at hospital about changing insulin from novomix30 8 units injected at lunch time to basal/bolus???? I am type2. I am on daily maintenance dose of 20mg of steroids for other medical condition. This plays havoc with my b.s.. I monitor bloods before and 2 hrs after every meal. From lunch time until early evening I feel absolutely rotten. B.s. climb into teens even after injecting and don't come back to normal until late evening. Then I'm starving but manage to have light supper and then it's bed. Fasting normally in the 5s.
I have been up all night crying my eyes out as I can't even begin to understand this new regime never mind implementing it!!!! I am terrified....worried bout hypos etc. How am I going to adjust to this. I've looked at the link but feel I am even more confused.
