[QUOTE="lordbladdemere, post: 1716078, member: 469429"] Hello Everyone! My name's Sean O'Sullivan and I've been T1 since I was 5. I'm now 23 and because of being stupid when I was younger and not looking after my diabetes, I have some retinopathy problems. I've been on a waiting list for almost a year to see a diabetic specialist and finally got to see him in January. For the first time ever he put me on a new insulin, it's called Tresiba. I'm finding the adjustment period quite difficult and my blood sugars have been really high. Currently I'm on 28 units of Tresiba in the morning and we were also trying 22 units in the evening before this, with a gradual increase in dosage over the last few weeks. I'm just really worried because I'm in my last year in college and the thought of any more damage to my eyesight is making my ill. I've just started a low carb diet today and I'm hoping it'll help with the highs. I guess I'm just saying everything at once because I'm worried but did anyone else have an adjustment period with the Tresiba? I'm also taking Novorapid insulin. Thanks everyone it's lovely to be part of a community like this [/QUOTE]
