Thank you Ali H and yes I completed the original form stating that I was aware and I did not need any assistance. In fast In my opinion I became aware that I was heading towards the hypo condition very quickly as probably most senior or long term diabetics would. Again it was so unusual...

Well Hows that you may ask ? Basically I received a batch of 50 test strips and as usual kept them in their box. Sometimes at night JUST before my insulin doses I check my status as I am mostly high in the 9-10 range. However after a few error readings I realized the test strips were cut...

The Ten Mahler symphonies and if they fit onto nine superaudio hi rez discs then add Beethovens Ninth with a filler ?

A well known cause for the increase in DB2 was Very strong ANTIBIOTICS. I am sure a number of other very strong medicines contribute to start the problem around the immune system. In my case ,which is now pretty severe ,the liver area is also the problem. Most people posting on this forum do not...

HBA1c @ 9.3 unchanged from previous despite increase so perhaps another Canaries holiday triggers this. Not going down added Januvia route as its easier for me to keep the very little control I have without any complications. thanks.

quick thanks for the replies. Not sure if Nosher is quite in agreement that the report indicates it DOES work with Insulin.? Also not sure whether my surprise at reading this semi contradictory review was a case of."I dont believe it" or "Yet again they have gotten something wrong for years?"...

https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00395343 Im in for my Doctors meeting in the morning due to the usual poor control. Expect hba to be double figures. Having uppted the Levimir and Novorapid to 65/50 units per day I have had a slight improvement in readings.ie 8.3 to 11.9 which might...

ok, My posting was more or less a comment on how NON black and white medical opinion is and diagnosis can be. This was also a slight throwaway rebuff for those who think that they can just take a set amount of medicine or eat a set amount of carbs and expect to have readings like a well oiled...

The essence of conversations I have had with first my Appointed DB nurse then a Doctor and then My endiocryonologist shows up as follows, (1) Welll if you are type two coming off metformin etc on to insulin then you are still type (2). Well when you are taking the 110 units and are...

PERSONALLY I totally agree that the general NHS identification of Diabetics was extremely poor and I discovered my own condition via a News Item on Sky being given by a Doctor .She predicted in the year 2000 that the timebomb that had been hanging over the NHS re undiagnosed diabetics in the...

really in trouble rising readings seem to be my life story Now on over 100 u levimir /novorapid daily diet seems to make no difference.

Well I had a remarkably low 7.8 this morning compared to my recent rising average of approx 12.0 rising from approx 10,O over the last two months. Tomorrow I go back for my HBAiC having re visiting my Doctor who is struggling to come up with a new course of action as I am now on 62 units...

Hi and first advice, Dont panic. Having read your other posting and the replies,it seems you have been diagnosed with autoimune disease? This wasnt mentioned above. It is probable that this is the main factor for slightly unstable readings. Take it from me you are only just out of a normal range...

:D MadamHope Sorry I never spotted your posting earlier but it would be worth your while looking up Lantus problems on this site and you will find the answer I was very gratefull to find salvation here. As a fellow scouser I went downhill into depression quickly when this stuff and Apidra...

Just curious, How many others out there are taking levels similair to me ...? Hope Im not alone... Well, an update and some information Ive gleaned from recent specialist visit. Bodyweight Kilos x 1.5 is a rough guide to highish safe levels but this is not a maximum.. Even this was for a...

]That's interesting, perhaps we are long overdue for a storyline focused on diabetes. To be honest I am always annoyed when the subject is brought up especially on TV. Frequently they use the term, People Get Diabetes ? :crazy: / This brings it into the same category as any contagious or...

Hi, It struck me recently when my endiocryonologist ? stated that,Their is no limit to how much insulin you may need to take to get the problem under control? Well i am currently on 33u x 2 Levimir AND 22u x 2 Novorapid PER DAY. :crazy: :shock: :x Still get double figure morning readings...

Well firstly a reading of about 4 would be way too low for me.This is probably the result of too much insulin. From what Ive been told by my specialist, too rapid a change is bad..You should have been shown how to come down slowly.. Their is no absolute correct average..Ignore anyone who says...
