Hi, first time here. Last sat eve my pre bed BG read 22.5, no illness, hadn't eaten any differently. Short story my ketone maxed out and I was admitted to A+E barely able to walk, vomiting, diaohrea etc.
Was stabilised v quickly and sent home on Wed (yesterday)
Pre bed check read 21.3! took a 10 units and best it got after 4 hours was 19.6.
I suspected my insulin batch as the first event had occurred on starting a fresh batch on the Saturday so at4. 30am I took 10units using one of the disposable pens they gave me in hospital, now 7am and BG is 11.1, feeling OK.
Anyone had probs with faulty insulin or does it even happen?
