    Tresiba

    I got swapped from lantus to tresiba and honestly I would never use lantus again. The tresiba has as far as I'm aware stopped my hypos during the night/ and the fits I used to have, and has also improved my levels during the day. I still spike at certain times but if I do carb free for a day...

    How do you get on with Lantus?

    Has anyone done the carb free test - MDI?

    I have done one of these before it's not as bad as it seems. If you go carb free the whole day do your lantus as normal and check often if you find you go to high just do the correction ratio that they give you and tell them when it happened as it will prove you need to change things it's a slow...

I went to visit my parents who lived a 5/10 min walk away from me in that time I was only a couple minutes away and I passed out on the path and split open my top lip. Luckily the person who found me knew who...
