Well I survived although it ran high all night, woke up this morning at 9.8 so could have been worse. Thanks for putting up with my panic last night

Thank you very much. I will do that!

My bs at present is 8.9

My basal is abasaglar an i am on 18 units at bedtime and trurapi at meals.

I just did my overnight injection wrong! I misjudged how far the needle was in my abdomen and managed to inject into the skin so I have a little bubble that is quite visible under the skin. Should I reinject or would that be another mistake?

Mine was 6.8 this morning at 6:40 am.

I am a coeliac as well as type 1.5 on 4 injections a day.

Thank you very much.

I have been using xultify for many years but my specialist nurse has decided I may get better results if by separating the insulin from the other element. She has now prescribed Lantus and GLP1. Could anyone tell me the best time of day to take the Lantus? I have been injecting at 1pm every...

Beautiful!

I woke up at 5:40 down at 3.1 according to the freestyle libre. Took two glucose tablets and am now 5.3 at 6:20. Scary!

I find myself falling asleep, in that I loose track of time and realize that I dropped off, when I go higher than about 9.00.

Thank you Grant. I did leave the area to dry for a little bit, but probably not a full 5 minutes. Regards, Carol

Thank you for your replies Energize and Brunneria. I didn't use any creams or lotions, and thoroughly cleaned the area with the alchol pad before applying the sensor. I was just sitting at the computer, working, when I felt it fall off. I will ask hubby to contact them to explain what has...

My husband bought me a Freestyle libre starter kit with two sensors and a reader last week. I have found it very useful for the last four days. I discovered that I was going very low overnight (2.9 was lowest) and on one night this happened twice. Sadly, the sensor has just fallen off my arm...

Thank you, Brunneria. Me too! Yes, I have been reading the LADA forum. Another question if I may? Does anyone else feel a bone-chilling cold when they go low? I have been shivering and feel icy cold as I near the 4.0 mark. Not technically a hypo above 4? Regards, Carol

Yes, I am on 3 x 500mg metformin a day. They haven't confirmed the diagnosis yet. They want to do another A1C test. I am back to see the Specialist on 9th June. It seems the tests are expensive and they say it will only give me a label not change the treatment at this point, so seem loathe to do...

With my AiC going up each time it was tested over the last year, raching a high of 10.1% at the beginning of March, the DN had expressed concerns that I may be a type 1.5 rather than type 2. She referred me to a Specialist, a podiatrist and a dietician. Today was the last of those three...

They make handy containers for beads, if you them.

Of course I don't mind, NurseDee. :) I use an app on my Mac and iPad called Diabetes Pilot. It also tracks carbs, exercise, medication, weight and blood pressure. Regards, Carol
