Thank you Ellie for your response, it wasn't so much that I was comparing, it was just more that I have not come across that before, and I didn't realise people's basal doses could vary so much person to person that's all. I was just interested to find out if there was a reason for the wide...

Hello, It has been a while since I posted on here! I was diagnosed Type 1 coming up to 4 years ago. Almost one year ago now I switched to Tresiba Degludec - (I was on Levemir split dose morning/evening before that). The reason I changed was due to a few factors, but one being lifestyle, taking...

Hello - I am sure someone at some point has posted about this before, so sorry if you are having to repeat yourselves! I have recently changed my long acting insulin and have 5 un-used Levemir pre-filled pens, I was wondering is there anywhere I can donate these? Any charities that need them...

Amazing! Thanks so much for this!! xx

Yeah this all makes alot of sense.. Its complicated though isn't it!! Suppose trial and error is the way forward until i figure it out! Thanks for all that info all of you.. a great help!

Good evening all... So i have joined a gym .. i wanted to get into exercise again since being diagnosed 2 years ago i kind of stopped going! I joined mainly for the exercise/ work out classes such as spin, circuits, combat, abs etc.. which i really enjoy.. Anyway.. 2 weeks in and i am hypoing...

Current is 10..clearly miss calculated dinner! But i won't correct that now.. will leave it as it is.. better to be a little high right now.. Yes i will keep an eye over night and stay up for an hour or so then have some carb before bed. Thank you [emoji25][emoji5] Sent from my SM-G920F using...

So annoying!!! I injected 16u just now as my night time background.... normally i would inject 16u in the morning and 8u at night... I wasn't thinking racked the pen round to 16 and in it went! Then i realised but it's too late [emoji23] .. i was hoping for a good nights sleep! Seemingly thats...

So glad to hear your positivity, and glad you managed to get medical help safely. Take this as a warning! Let us know how you are getting on when you get home. Take care. Lots of hugs! Thinking of you.

We all have bad days, but 5 litres of coke per day is scary! (i'm not judging you here at all by the way if anything i feel sad you are stuck in this rut.) I would be too scared to be drinking 5 litres of sugar a day without injecting for 3 weeks! It's probably hard to see this & understand...

Yeah i agree it's totally an error on their part, they obviously didnt check at the time. I will go to the pharmacy i was given from first and see from there! I will use the expired ones first anyway so they dont go to waste.. from what i have read online it seems they are only slightly out of...

I have just noticed the test strips i have are out of date.. I am going away tomorrow morning (within the UK) and i realised when i was packing that on the box it says exp: 23rd Feb 2017. I picked them up from the pharmacy on 28th so they were already 5 days out of date when i received them...

Hello Yeah i had a similar experience. Shortly after my diagnosis i came off Novo Rapid pretty much all together for months as i was hypoing all the time, my pancreas decided to start back up and have one last go!, Levemir morning and night only was keeping my levels within range in this time. I...

My heart sank for you just now! I often think.. if my brother/sister/son were diagnosed with T1 i would be really upset..although it cant be helped but as we know what it's like you wouldn't wish it upon anyone as you said! Hope your mum is ok.. and now you can both deal with this together! Hugs...
