I've been put on insulin novamix 4 months ago due to covid ect its pretty hard to get to speak to gp or diabetes nurse well gard to get hold of pre covid but that's another story
Any how was put on 10 units in morning and 10 at night
I managed to get hold of nurse once in the months I've been taking it and upped me to 12 then told me to up it myself? By 2 units a week till my morning bloods are below 9mmol
I'm now still on only 16 units day and evening sometimes my tests in morning are anything from 9 to 12 mmol
And evening ones anywhere from 10 to 14mmol
I told her I dont want to go real low as I drive ect so id be happy at 8 lowest dont want to start having lows
But my after meal 2 to 3 hours after are high still does that mean part of the nova mix aint working or is that how it is do they just concentrate on your pre meal bloods?
If not what do I do shes always on holiday tried changing gp,s but I'm out of the other catchment areas
Help please
