I smoke it and find it actually helps lower mine! I'm type 1 too

Brilliant! It's just really getting me a bit pi**ed off you know!! @azure can you tell me what a basal test is please..? @helensaramay thanks for this. As I have to inject like almost 50 units, if I do it all in one jab, it stings, so I split the 45 units into 2 separate injections sites....

Hi @azure Nope, the sugar levels are high, hot cross bun or not! I'm genuinely tempted to just stop using Toujeo and go back to Lantus! I only joined this regime about 4 months ago (the previous 15 years or so I was on Novomix 2x injections a day)

Hey guys! Let me set the scene for the occasion last night and the straw that broke the camels back. I tested at 10pm last night at blood sugar levels were 6.1 and I then injected by 45 units of Toujeo at 10pm as like every other day. We then get to 10.30pm last night and I was starving, so...

Hi - I have recently switched from Novomix 30 insulin to Novorapid & Lantus. However, I have 2 or 3 boxes of unopened and unused Novomix 30 disposable insulin pens. Anyone know what's best to do with these? Anywhere I can donate them to or places that recycle them...?? Cheers

I have had my appointment at the hospital today and they have switched my regime to 4x a day - I start it tonight! I hope this will stop the above happening to often again!! Thanks for comments so far guys

I did my reading at around 8.30am this morning and it read 8.9. I then did my usual shot, had a bowl of special K and got on with my day. I then tested at about 2pm and found it to be 2.2. I have an appointment with the hospital on Tuesday - hopefully I'll have some more answers then

Hi - I take around 40 units in the morning (before breakfast) - and around 34 in the evening (before dinner).....whilst I was in the hospital, every nurse couldn't believe that I was still on the 2 a day regime. When I finally got through to the right department, they told me that their records...

Hi seeking some advice if I may..? How is it possible that my blood sugar level can go from 2.2 up to 21.8 in the space of 2 hours?? Only food I had in that time was a small glass of orange juice and two bits of toast?!? I am still on novomix 30 and take 2 injections a day. The hospital records...
