[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 1815494, member: 468714"] Hi [USER=74515]@Sideburnt[/USER], Possibilities: 1) I find the longer being diabetic the less tolerance to changes and insulin requirement may tend to go up from the end of the honeymoon phase and maybe is one of the reasons for the change in Humulin doses you have noticed but see 2) etc below. 2) Fluconazole is known to cause liver inflammation = up insulin resistance 3) yeast infection might allow a second infection like a low grade bacterial one to happen, ( noted in possible side-effects) more inflammation = up insulin resistance 4) disturbance of bowel bugs due to Fluconazole --> up insulin resistance 5) The Fiasp by day may not be covering your insulin requirements , between when Humulin is not active and when Humulin is next injected. Insulin resistance and lack of basal insulin at the moment by day might have something to do with Fiasp's poorer effect 6) it may be that once insulin resistance is lowered any Dawn effect may be less 7) if 6) is true, then a more reliably absorbed long acting insulin taken say twice daily will give you 24 hour basal insulin cover and may improvement overall control over the daytime. 8) you are probably aware that if you exercise with BSL > 14 mmol/l the BSL goes up and is less likely to fall later 9) maybe there is some additional, as yet undiagnosed reason for your yeast infection's tenacity which is having an effect on your body and insulin requirements. I hope that the above helps. [/QUOTE]
