Sigh. I'm having problems. Bit of background - i'm taking Lantus and Novorapid and i'm a type 1 diabetic.
I've been having some problems recently with my blood sugar and for the past week (or 2 :cry: ) when i've tested it first thing in the morning it's been over 20mmol. On Saturday morning it was 27mmol. Obviously I injected myself with fast acting insulin to correct it. This morning I tested and I was 18mmol.
I've contacted my diabetic clinic at the hospital and they can't see me until the 11th November 2010 which is nearly 3 weeks away. My GP gave me some suggestions around dosages etc but that isn't working and I am either having a serious hypo or still staying the same. I'm guessing the lantus isn't working but I can't be sure until I see the doctor.
It's going to be a very long 3 weeks until I finally get to see the diabetes team :cry:
