Hi I'm 56years type with a pump and sensor with chronic pain and cough that they don't know why and no pain meds help they just cause other problems with no effects on the pain, the main problems now is my blood sugars like locking at a lv mostly between 10-16 and food and insulin has no effects some times for 3-18 hours unless pain changes or sometimes for no reason as altering the basal mostly has no effect or bolusing 1-2 units, taking food with a bolus sometimes works but not always taking a large bolus with no food also works some times, up basal 2-5x but really not sure whats happening.
I don;t know what happening it looks like some thing other than the pump is working on the blood sugars but got no clue any ideas?
pain makes me massively resistant to insulin and when the pain drop my bloodsugars can go down 10+ points in less than 15 mins i found a drug trial for the pain (ivabradine) which works for me droped the pain 4+ points out of 10 except for the spikes when moving but it got such restricted NICE guidelines all doctors i asked to proscribe it refused. it's use to lower pulse rates for heart attack patients and my local chemist had it in stock so it can't be a uncommon drug
