    Type 1 Tresiba - how long does it take to kick in

    I've been taking Tresiba for a couple of years now, and before that Lantus. I find it works better than Lantus, but if I take 15/16 units I feel nauseous and bloated and lethargic.

    Dribbling embarrassment

    kevkevkev - well done for bringing up this issue. I've had this problem too - so if I am in toilet stall as opposed to a urinal, I grab some toilet paper and shove it in my pants to absorb any minor leakage. Some years ago I suffered from IBS and I was repeatedly peeing (which was really...
