    Accidentally gave a double dose of Levemir

    Hi everyone, Sorry if I’m not meant to be posting this here.. I just wanted advice as I’ve accidentally just given myself a double dose of Levemir. I do 16 units in the morning and 8 at night, and gave myself the morning dose because I wasn’t thinking. Do you think it’ll have much effect? If...

    Thinking of Switching to a Pump..

    Okay thank you, that’s really helpful. It’s something I’m seriously considering. I’m not sure if I’d meet the criteria as I don’t have a problem with lows.. mine are more in the teens quite often, also I find it difficult to inject in front of people so feel a pump would help with that. Thanks...

    Running high so I could drive...

    Hi JuicyJ, thank you for taking the time to reply, that is good advice.. I suppose I just need to get my levels more stable and then can rely more on being 6 for example and not be worried it will continue to drop! I had been running over 10 basically all the time - I am not proud of how I was...

    Running high so I could drive...

    Hi guys, I haven't posted on here in a while and I think it's mainly because I haven't been taking my diabetes seriously for a long time but have had a bit of a reality check when I got my latest eye screening results back - They said I have background retinopathy and so I really need to...

    My injections have been painful recently

    Hi everyone, I have been diabetic for about 10 years and understand about injection site rotation and replacing the needles etc, but recently my injections have been really painful and I always seem to bruise and I'm not sure why. I have been doing more muscle exercises, so maybe that's it...

    Freestyle Libre

    Hey everyone, Ignore the title, I should have said Freestyle Libre meters! This is just a quick post... I was browsing this site as I was looking for some advice on control and blood glucose management, as I feel like my levels have been consistently high generally over the last few months...

    Really nervous

    Well it was high for two weeks because I was at camp and found it difficult to inject, but this last week I'm not sure... Does having a cold make your sugar levels higher?

    Really nervous

    Hey everyone.. I've got my diabetes appointment at the hospital this week, and I am so nervous about it, because for the past few weeks, my blood glucose levels have been so so high. I just don't know what to say to them, I don't want to show them my meter... How can I get out of this habit...
