Thankyou this is all new with counting ketones for me and appreciate your advice

I’m now 13.3 and ketones 0.4 I’ve injected 2 mmol more

I have just replaced the cartridge on my novorapid now and injected 2 mmol let’s hope you are right

Thankyou I have used two different pens so don’t think it’s the novorapid cartridge but yes it’s taking time to come down, currently at 14. Thankyou so much for your insight re double numbers - no I’m not stressed just feeling yuk with these high numbers. Here’s hoping they go down soon as I was...

Hi I tested 17 mmol when I awoke 9 am and ketones 0.2. Injected 4 units. Then at 10.44 it was 16.2 so injected another 1 unit. At 11.20 am I was hungry and it was 14.2 so injected 2 units for 12g carbs. It went down to 13.3 at 11.40 am then by 12.45 pm it was 10.9 mmol. At 2 pm I was 11.4 mmol...

Update Ambulance turned up 5 am as I’d missed the 3rd call from 111. I’ve had two hypos in the night and feel rough. My husband has made me breakfast (porridge) but darent take any insulin until I hear from my diabetes team at hospital. What a night

Yes I suppose I at least did the right mistake if that’s a thing lol

Seems I missed the call as it never even rang, just my phone lit up and then a voicemail so a bit disappointed - sugars now 16 and not going to take any insulin whatsoever tonight x

I’ve rang Nhs direct and may be a long wait for a call. Yes my husband is here. My bs is 17 so that’s why I rang Nhs as it’s high still but yes I’ve had far too much Tresiba. I will test in night and will see if I get a call back - Thankyou everyone

OMG I’m now scared as I took the cartridge out of my Novorapid and realised it was Tresiba night time cartridge! I’ve been injecting Tresiba all day!!!!! What will happen. ? I usually only have 5 x Tresiba at night and I’ve injected 20 throughout the day but NO Novorapid!!!! Omg I’m so stupid...

Thankyou and yes cartridge is the word I checked it was coming out and in fact it was shooting out with no air bubbles. It’s something to consider changing again I suppose as this is only the second time it has happened to be constantly high and I feel fit and well and worked a little harder at...

Hi Thankyou so much for replying. This has helped and yes I use my hips and backside mainly as my stomach area bruises too badly. It’s so strange though as usually exercise brings it down rapidly. it’s a novorapid pen with changeable insulin so it’s like a phial of insulin that gets screwed in...

Hi I’m type 1.5 since 2020. Today my sugars won’t go down and I’m not doing anything different. I put a fresh insulin in my novorapid pen yesterday and it’s coming out fine. My sugars on rising were 9 then it went to 15 after my gym session when it usually goes down? I go regularly to the gym. I...

Wow didn’t know all this existed but it looks more complicated than using my Libre sensor 2, although my sugars are currently very erratic - suspected underactive thyroid to blame

Hi I’m type 1.5 only 2 years in. Just watched bbc programme The One Show where a little girl was the first to be NHS prescribed an Artificial Pancreas. Does anyone know if this amazing kit will be available to others? It seemed to consist of a pump, sensor but no injecting as the artificial...

Is this the artificial pancreas pump that has just been talked about on the One Show? It looks amazing if it is

You can enter your readings manually and so far it’s giving me indications of how much glucose I still have in me and how much to inject which is helping me.

Anyone else using this? It came up on my Facebook so decided to try today. It looks ok as once you input your data it tells you how much insulin is still in your system after your last dose and if you know the food carb content (their foods look swedish so I inputted manually) you put the carb...

Thankyou and yes hopefully temporary as woke up to a 8.2 [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]
