[QUOTE="shezza48, post: 1687648, member: 468455"] I’ve never had a C peptide test, think I’m going to have to have one soon, blood sugar levels are all over the place, sometimes it’s above 27, other times it’s as low as 2 or 3. I control my carb intake, I have now got to take more novorapid before food than I used to. I’m having lots of hypos, mainly first thing in the morning but I’m now having them in the day too( had to have emergency glucose in post office queue last week as Dexcom said blood sugars were low at 3.2. I’m self funding CGM) DSN wants to change my long acting insulin from humulin I to I think lantus. I’m currently looking into self funding an insulin pump as when I was in hospital with my pulmonary embolism and I was in ICU I was on pumped insulin, 4 units every hour, blood sugars never really rose or went low even after food, now my levels are so unpredictable. I now have to carry a hypo kit, I take 1500 mg metformin prolonged release, I was on gliclazide but got took off it over a year ago. Having such unpredictable glucose levels makes me not want to go out on my own. I’m waking up probably 5 mornings out of 7 with blood sugar levels of between 2 and 3, it’s getting me so down now. Got appointment with DSN on February 15th, hoping she can sort these hypos out. [/QUOTE]
