Hi guys, I am becoming extremely worried I have been working in a new job (personal trainer and fitness instructor) foe the last few months. I don't get home until 10 ish so am eating my dinner around 10.30pm. I take tresiba 16 u at 8 am km the morning do fasted cardio and don't have breakfast...

What an idiot. I've just injected my night time basal dose but used 26 units of novorapid by mistake. BG was around 6. I've taken 400ml juice, 6 glucose tabs and a slab of white bread slathered in honey.

Hi, I am a first time poster. For background purposes my teenage son has had type 1 for 14 years, he has been on the accuchek combo pump for nearly 8 years. Usually we get a repeat prescription every 2 months which includes 6 vials of novorapid insulin for his pump. To be honest we normally get...

Hi, I’ve had Type 1 Diabetes for 3 weeks now and since then I’ve been taking Novorapid before my meals and Levemir once a day before bed. Do you have to take the Levamir at the same time everyday? The diabetes nurse told me to take it whenever I went to bed but I was looking online and...

Hey So I was only diagnosed with type one in September and before this diagnosis i didnt always eat breakfast, either because I would wake up too late or just because I'm not hungry in the mornings. This became my routine. But since I was put on fixed doses i felt like I absolutely had to eat...

Hi I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes after having DKA and spending time in the hospital. Anwayss... im still on fixed doses (until my carb counting course) and they are currently 8 units at breakfast, 8 for lunch and 11 at dinner time. I am on novorapid in the daytime. I am on 30 units of...

Hi! I did 2 hard(ish) runs today and my BG keeps crashing down even though I havent taken any Novorapid today. I keep spooning jam in to my mouth but it raises BG levels just slightly.. I have counted that I have taken about 350 Carbs in the last 4 hours and still my meters shows values around...

Hi everyone! I know that insulin resistance does exist. I've used NovoRapid injections for about 12 years, but over the last couple of weeks I've been getting ridiculous highs, mainly after I've eaten (I'm using my normal carb/insulin ratio so this shouldn't be happening). My normal dose of...

I was in Boots High St, Brandon yesterday and the pharmacist decided to have his lunch at 2, when the surgery was meant to open (was closed between 1-2pm for one day for some reason) so went up to Boots Bury Road, in Brandon, which was a helpful pharmacy because a staff member went and got some...

Good morning my beautiful friends, I hope that you are all exceptionally well! Please, could you remind me the DAFNE rules regarding pasta, rice and pulses/legumes because I cannot remember. Do we weight them cooked or uncooked in order to estimate our Novorapid? I asked a couple of type 1...

Hi, Sorry if this seems like a silly question but I am still waiting to see my consultant following diagnosis! I am doing pretty well with carb counting using the basal/bolus regime but had a question about bolus insulin. If for example I was to go out for a meal, injected insulin to cover...

Hi Everyone, Im new here and looking for some help for my younger sister. She is 20yrs old and has type 1, she was diagnosed when she was 18 months and was on 2 injections a day (She used to use Humalog) during Nov/Dec 2016 she was changed over to Levemir and Novorapid. She has her Levemir in...

Hello, i want to go to a gym(pilates sessions) but the times of sessions are very close to meals. So there is a big danger of strong hypos. How should i adjust the dosage? Is there any general rule for this situation? Thanks a lot.

Just thought I'd share in the hope of some advice. Was having major problems with high post meal spikes especially after lunch where was hitting up to 21 mmol 1 hour after eating dropping to 8 - 10 mmol at the 2 hr mark but nicely at target 4-4.5 hours following injection. At breakfast was just...

Good afternoon everyone, I would really appreciate some advice from 'experienced' type 1s who have had the same problem as me! I was diagnosed with Type 1 in February, since then my blood glucose control has generally been very good. Just recently I have been experiencing random post-meal...

Hello everybody, I was diagnosed as type 1 only 4 months ago, until this week everything has been going really well but these last few days I've been getting blood sugar readings of 14 or 15, always after lunch, although I haven't eaten anything out of the ordinary and I've injected my insulin...

Evening all, I've been a T1 since 2008. Been on a pump the last few years and absolutely loving it (It certainly has worked wonders on my HBA1C results). However something I wanted to ask. My Novorapid seems to be less and less effective as time goes on, meaning I need more and more of the...

Hello all :) New to the Forum today! Thought I'd wade in with a problem that has been hindering me for the past 9 months or so... Diagnosed as T1D in April '14 and after a couple of months had everything relatively under control. Moved house June '15 and a month or so later the insulin stored...

Hello all, I am totally new to any sort of Diabetes Forum so forgive me if this question has already been asked.. I have been a type 1 diabetic for 21 years and only within the last year have been moved over to 4 injections a day, previously I was on two injections and mixed insulin. I now use...
