[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2146869, member: 345386"] Hi Libby - I'm not T1, or on insulin, so my suggestions are from my reading on here. How long has this been going on? Does it marry up with the start of the cooler weather? How high are your numbers running, by comparison to your more usual readings? How are you feeling with your higher readings? Have you tried a new vial or pen? If that didn't work a pen/vial from another batch? Has your insulin got a bit hot or cold? Do you rotate your injection sites? If you concentrate on one or two areas, they get a bit hardened from over use Are you unwell at all? That can change how your body reacts to foods/meds Has your weight or activity levels changed at all? Losing or gaining weight can influence insulin resistance, and similarly for exercise. If you were, say, less active for a while you could see some changes? Probably also worth ensuring your test strips are in date? If they're out of date, that can impact their accuracy? I'm sure others will be along some time with more and better ideas shortly. [/QUOTE]
